Abstract

Math anxiety is a significant barrier to academic achievement, particularly for students in mathematics-intensive fields. This study examines the emotional and cognitive predictors of math anxiety, focusing on the roles of self-efficacy, mindfulness, and self-compassion among undergraduate mathematics students from public and private universities in Lahore. A sample of 300 students completed validated measures of math anxiety, self-efficacy, mindfulness, and selfcompassion.
