QUIZA MAMANI, Carlos Javier et al. Attitudes and competencies in mathematics of students in teacher training in southern Peru. Horizontes Rev. Inv. Cs. Edu. [online]. 2024, vol.8, n.33, pp.727-735.  Epub 02-Abr-2024. ISSN 2616-7964.  https://doi.org/10.33996/revistahorizontes.v8i33.756.

The study investigates the relationship between attitude towards mathematics and problem solving ability in teacher trainees of the Faculty of Educational Sciences (FCEDUC) of the Universidad Nacional del Altiplano (UNA) in the academic year 2018-I. A quantitative research method with a descriptive and correlational design was employed, using surveys and tests as data collection techniques. The results reveal a significant positive correlation (+0.666, p < 0.01) between attitude towards mathematics and problem solving, indicating that a favorable attitude towards mathematics is associated with higher problem solving ability. In addition, a positive correlation was found between cognitive, affective and behavioral dimensions and mathematical problem solving. This finding highlights the importance of addressing attitudes towards mathematics in teacher education.
