Math anxiety: the impact on traditionally underserved and marginalized adult female undergraduate students in elementary statistics

Abstract

effects of math anxiety thus encouraging student self-defeating behaviors of procrastination and reluctance to ask for help; (c) recognition of best practices that included faculty education, use of technology, and early identification of at risk students. The recommendations for practice include the adoption of early preparation and retention strategies by college educators and officials to identify and assist at risk students early in their higher education careers and the continuation of qualitative research across a broader spectrum of participants, with the optimal goal of moving closer to fairness and equality in educational achievement across gender to enhance the global economic balance of our society.
