Abstract
The Mathematics Attribution Scale-Algebra was designed to assess attributions for success and failure in algebra to ability, effort, task, and environment. It was the purpose of this study to examine the attributional patterns of men and women attending the American Samoa Community College. For 126 Samoan students (57 men, 69 women) the attributional patterns did not appear to differ. Both groups attributed success in mathematics to effort and a conducive learning environment and did not attribute failure in algebra to the difficulty of the topic.
