Abstract
This study was an attempt to represent a pattern of correlations, through Structural Equation Modeling, among parenting styles and math anxiety while examining the mediating effect of goal orientation. To achieve this aim, 380 students that were chosen by multistep cluster sampling from elementary school. They answered the math anxiety, goal orientation questionnaires and their parents answered the parenting style questionnaire. The results of structural equations modeling methods show that Approach-performance goals and authoritarian parenting style has a direct effect on math anxiety. The authoritarian and Permissive - indulgent parenting style has a direct effect on approach-performance goals. Authoritative parenting style has direct effect on mastery goals.
