dc.description.abstractThis study investigated the influence of mathematics achievement, math self- efficacy and attitude towards mathematics on the K-12 career preferences of Grade 10 students. This is a descriptive-relational study which made use of the one-shot survey design. One hundred twenty eight (128) randomly selected Grade 10 students of a private school in Iloilo City enrolled during school year 2015-2016 served as the research subjects. The Mathematics Self-Efficacy Scale (MSES) and Mathematics Attitude Scale were administered to measure the students’ mathematics self-efficacy and attitude towards mathematics respectively. The mean of the students’ final grades in their Grade 8 and 9 math subjects was used as the measure of their mathematics achievement. The Chi-square test and Phi Correlation Coefficient were used to determine if there exist a significant relationship among the variables of the study. The Cramer’s V was used to describe the magnitude or strength of the relationship between variables and the test of significance was set at 5% level. The findings showed that the Grade 10 students had satisfactory math achievement. They had low math self-efficacy and unfavorable attitude towards mathematics. The findings of this study revealed that there is a significant relationship between mathematics self-efficacy and attitude towards mathematics. A significant relationship was also found between mathematics achievement and attitude towards mathematics. However, no significant relationships was found between attitude towards mathematics and K-12 career preferences of Grade 10 students, between math self- efficacy and K-12 career preferences, between mathematics achievement and K-12 career preferences, and between math self-efficacy and K-12 career preferences when their attitude towards math was controlled, and between math achievement and K-12 career preferences when their attitude towards mathematics was controlled.en_US
