Abstract
Further research is needed to investigate the potentially differential impact of a negative experience (e.g., discouragement, negative role models) compared to positive ones on self-efficacy. Further study of the potential differences in men's and women's cognitive appraisal of their high school math-related experiences is also desirable. Future research efforts should utilize samples of younger students and follow them longitudinally, perhaps incorporating qualitative methods, to more fully understand the complexity of factors which contribute to math self-efficacy. Revisions to the MSES are also suggested.
