Abstract :

The present study investigates the effect of problem solving strategy on achievement in mathematics in relation to academic anxiety. The sample consisted 100 students of class 10th selected from two different schools of Amritsar (Punjab). Instructional material based on problem solving strategy was prepared and utilized to teach the experimental group. After pre- testing and post-testing on all the students, gain scores were computed. The academic anxiety test was also administered. Mean, S.D, Analysis of Variance (2×3) and t- ratio were used to arrive at the conclusions – (i) The performance of problem solving strategy group was found significantly higher as compared to the conventional group. (ii)The performance of students with different academic anxiety group was found significant. (iii)No significant interaction effect was found between the two variables.
