Students who study in primary and secondary schools experience the least fear of mathematics. As the level of education of mothers and fathers increases, the fear of mathematics in students decreases. Students have been found to experience mathematical fear for reasons such as failure to resolve the problem, counterparts, brothers and upper class mathematical harassment. In classes where the teacher’s class management skills are insufficient, students experience more fear of mathematics. The excessive importance of mathematics in the exam and the difficult perception of mathematics are also identified as the causes of mathematical fear.
