Abstract:The purpose of this study was to model a pathway using affective variables to predict academic achievement in mathematics among students. Causal-comparative research design with a total of 739 students were used for the study. Multivariate statistical techniques-multiple regression and path analysis procedures were used for data analysis. The result showed that all the variables combined had a strong effect in predicting achievement in mathematics. The result indicated that the most meaningful causal model had… Show more
