This study was carried out to test the psychometric characteristics of a previously developed math anxiety scale, to determine its sub domains, and to collect data to form the basis of a future norm study. Data was collected from 754 middle school and high school students. The results of the data analysis supported the psychometric quality of the math anxiety scale, which had been previously tested during the development of the scale. The results of the factor analysis indicated four dimensions of math anxiety pertaining to, “test and evaluation anxiety”, “apprehension of math lessons”, "use of mathematics in daily life” and “self efficacy for mathematics”.
