Resumo

Os professores e os pais monitorizam de perto o progresso dos alunos em matemática, reconhecendo o seu papel crucial na formação das suas perspetivas e na abertura de diversas oportunidades de carreira. Apesar da extensa pesquisa destinada a melhorar o desempenho matemático, certos fatores permanecem cruciais, nomeadamente a ansiedade em relação à matemática e a autoeficácia. Este estudo investiga a interação entre esses conceitos, focando especialmente o papel da ansiedade matemática na mediação da relação entre a autoeficácia matemática e o desempenho matemático geral entre os alunos do ensino secundário. Envolvendo 471 participantes, esta pesquisa utilizou uma abordagem baseada em questionários adaptados. A análise de correlação revelou uma associação significativa entre a autoeficácia matemática e o desempenho académico. A análise de regressão elucidou ainda que a ansiedade em relação à matemática atua como um mediador parcial nesta relação. De forma notável, os resultados sugerem que a redução dos níveis de ansiedade em relação à matemática fortalece a influência positiva da autoeficácia matemática no desempenho matemático dos alunos. Essas descobertas oferecem implicações valiosas para intervenções educacionais destinadas a promover um ambiente de apoio propício à aprendizagem e ao sucesso matemático.
