Abstract

Mathematics performance remains a significant concern in higher education, as learners’ affective and motivational factors critically shape their achievement outcomes. In this context, the present study explored how anxiety, attitude, motivation, and academic well-being influence students’ performance in mathematics using a quantitative descriptive-correlational design with path analysis. Using a validated researcher-made questionnaire, data were gathered from 369 undergraduate students. The instrument demonstrated sound reliability and validity. Statistical analyses comprising descriptive measures and structural equation modeling (SEM) were conducted to identify both direct and mediated relationships among variables. Findings showed that students generally experienced moderate levels of mathematics anxiety and favorable levels of motivation and academic well-being. Correlation results revealed that anxiety was negatively linked to all other factors, whereas attitude, motivation, and academic well-being were positively associated with mathematics performance. Path analyses further indicated that motivation and academic well-being directly enhanced performance, while anxiety negatively affected achievement indirectly by lowering students’ attitudes and motivation. The final model demonstrated an excellent fit, suggesting that emotional and motivational mechanisms play a vital role in determining mathematics success. These results underscore the need for educational strategies that help students manage anxiety and strengthen their motivation and well-being to support sustained academic achievement.

Abstract

This action research aimed to enhance the numeracy skills of Grade 9 remedial learners at a high school in Iloilo Province through multisensory learning strategies. Recognizing the persistent struggles in mathematics among the remedial learners, the researchers implemented a three-week intervention using three distinct approaches: tactile learning through manipulatives, audiovisual learning through educational videos, and kinesthetic learning through movement-based games. Sixteen identified remedial learners participated in activities that engaged multiple senses to make abstract concepts more concrete and accessible. Assessment results showed a clear before-and-after improvement in numeracy performance, from a Week 1 baseline mean score of 14.44/40 (36.10%) to a Week 3 post-intervention mean score of 32.88/40 (82.20%), with kinesthetic activities yielding the highest impact—100% of learners scoring 50% and above by the end of the intervention (compared with 18.75% in Week 1 and 56.25% in Week 2). Student interviews confirmed that games, visual presentations, and active participation improved engagement, comprehension, and enjoyment. Simple incentives like snacks and sticker-based attendance cards further boosted motivation and consistent attendance. The data analysis highlighted that engaging multiple senses supports differentiated instruction, improves learning outcomes, and fosters a more inclusive and interactive environment for struggling learners. The study recommends regular integration of multisensory learning strategies, particularly kinesthetic learning strategy through movement-based games, in remedial instruction, along with incentives that sustain student interest. This research provides practical and evidence-based insights for educators seeking to transform traditional math instruction and support diverse learning needs in remedial settings.
