Mathematics in primary school is the enlightenment of mathematics learning.How to improve students' mathematics scores has always been the most concerned problem for teachers and parents.There are many non-knowledge factors that affect students' mathematics achievement,among which the most important ones are mathematics anxiety,self-efficacy and learning interest.A large number of studies have shown that mathematics anxiety,self-efficacy and learning interest on mathematics have significant effects on mathematics achievement.Reducing mathematics anxiety is beneficial to improve self-efficacy,and stimulate interest in mathematics learning,so that students can learn mathematics in a positive mood,and effectively improve mathematics performance.This study adopts the method of combining quantitative research and interview research.In the first study,to explore the relationship between mathematics anxiety,self-efficacy,learning interest and mathematics achievement in primary school students.In this case,the "mathematics anxiety scale","self-efficacy comprehensive scale" and "learning interest level scale" were used.245 primary school students grade from three to five finished questionnaire survey.With the help of SPSS,mathematics anxiety,correlation analysis and regression analysis were conducted on primary school students' mathematics anxiety,self-efficacy and learning interest.The results show that self-regulated learning efficacy can positively predict mathematics achievement,while mathematics anxiety can negatively predict mathematics achievement.The second study is an interview research.Using semi-structured interviews,students from three to five grade,teachers and parents were interviewed.Under the guidance of grounded theory,coding and analysing the data of 30 interview object,the results show that increasing students' self-regulated learning efficacy can alleviate the math anxiety,which has important significance to improve the achievement in math.This study explores the influence of mathematics anxiety,self-efficacy and learning interest on students' mathematics achievement.Further more,exploring the reasons for the influence of mathematics anxiety and self-efficacy on students' mathematics achievement,which can help to improve students' self-regulation learning efficiency,relieve mathematics anxiety,and improve students' mathematics achievement.Finally,combined with the teaching practice of primary school mathematics,the author puts forward educational suggestions for teachers,parents and schools.
