Child Anxiety Profiles in Chilean Elementary School Students and Academic Self-Attributions in Mathematics

The present study had a dual objective: to verify the existence of profiles of anxious students and to relate the possible profiles with causal self-attributions in the area of mathematics. The sample consisted of 1,730 Chilean children from 9 to 11 years old ( M = 10.05; SD = 1.03). The Visual An...
