Abstract
In this study, the relationships between middle school students' problem posing attitudes, self-efficacy perceptions and problem-solving attitudes in mathematics were examined. This study investigated the mediating roles of mathematical self-efficacy on the effects of problem posing attitudes on problem-solving attitudes. A structural equation modelling was used to examine the mediating roles of mathematical self-efficacy perceptions in the effects of the problem posing attitudes on mathematical problem-solving attitudes. This study was carried out on 493 (251 girls, 242 boys) students studying in a secondary school affiliated to the Ministry of National Education in **** province in Türkiye in the fall term of the 2023-2024 academic year. Data were collected via online questionnaire form. The findings indicated that a) students’ problem posing attitudes had a direct and positive effect on students’ mathematical problem-solving attitudes; b) students’ problem posing attitudes had a direct and positive effect on students’ mathematical self-efficacy perceptions c) students’ mathematical self-efficacy perceptions had a direct and positive effect on students’ mathematical problem-solving attitudes; In addition, mathematical self-efficacy perceptions play a partial mediating role in the relationship between students' problem-posing attitudes and mathematical problem-solving attitudes.
