Abstract

Studying of teachers’ self-efficacy and its sources is a relevant topic in the field of mathematics education. In this contribution we present a study about the relations between emotions towards mathematics and its teaching of pre-service teacher and their self-efficacy toward mathematics teaching. The paper describes an observational-correlational research on a sample of students enrolled in the “Scienze della Formazione Primaria” master degree. Results show the existence of a strong correlation between emotions towards mathematics and its teaching and the self-efficacy related to this subject. Hence, data are coherent with the idea of working on emotions of future teachers towards mathematics and its teaching to influence their self-efficacy. From collected data, we can also observe that emotions towards mathematics, both positive or negative ones, are correlated respectively to positive and negative emotions towards its teaching
