FIGURE 1.
Latent subgroups of students from latent profile analysis (LPA) and secondary clustering. Means of residualized Z scores of INMM, MI, MSC, MPC, and MA are shown for each latent subgroup. Ellipse indicates a non-significant difference between these subgroups of certain variables. Group 1—high math anxiety and medium-high motivation. Group 2—high math anxiety and low motivation. Group 3—medium math anxiety and medium-low motivation. Group 4—low math anxiety and medium motivation. Group 5—low anxiety and high motivation. INMM, instrumental motivation in math; MA, math anxiety; MI, interest in math; MPC, math perceived control; MSC, math self-concept; Gp, latent subgroups. Significant level at 5%.
