Full TextAbstract
The main objective of this study is to explore the relationship between psychological fac-tors (i.e. math anxiety, attention, attitude, Working Memory Capacity (WMC), and Field dependency) and students’ mathematics problem solving based on Revised Bloom Tax-onomy. A sample of 169 K11 school girls were tested on (1) The Witkin’s cognitive style (Group Embedded Figure Test). (2) Digit Span Backwards Test. (3) Mathematics Anxiety Rating Scale (MARS). (4) Modified Fennema-Sherman Attitude Scales. (5) Mathematics Attention Test (MAT) , and (6) Mathematics questions based on Revised Bloom Taxonomy (RBT). Results obtained indicate that the effect of these items on students mathematical problem solving is different in each cognitive process and level of knowledge dimension.
