The aims of the present study were to development, validation and
normalization of mathematics anxiety scales (MAS), as an instrument
to measure students' Mathematics anxiety for high schools . By
using all of aspects of Mathematics anxiety a primarily
questionnaire with 96 item was developed and piloted based on a
sample of 2400 students. Data entry was performed using descriptive
statistics, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis and
goodness of fit by SPSS and Lisrel soft wears. Analyzing the data
extracted two factors for mathematics anxiety as math test anxiety
and numerical anxiety. Psychometric properties of reliability and
validity have shown significant results and are improved remarkably
that this instrument can be considered as a suitable criterion for
prospective clinical interventions. The MAS linked a communication
gap between students and teachers. Through use of the scale,
students, teachers and counselors are able to work together towards
improving Mathematics courses and increasing Mathematical literacy.
