Abstract
Math anxiety (MA) was conceptualized in both affective-cognitive and trait-state dimensions, and its link to math achievement was examined in adolescents. All dimensional MA measures showed gender differences, but only the affective MA associated with math performance, and the affective state MA fully mediated the effect of affective trait MA.
