Abstract

Utilizing correlation and regression for testing the predictive effect of growth mindset on students’ learning engagement in mathematics. The results reveal that students with a more pronounced growth mindset tend to have higher engagement in mathematics. These findings support the integration of growth mindset principles into educational strategies, suggesting that fostering a growth mindset could enhance mathematics engagement among Australian secondary students.
