The Suinn Mathematics Anxiety Rating Scale, Elementary Form (MARS-E) is described with a sample of 105 Hispanic students. These elementary school students were from six public schools. The test is composed of 26 items that measure anxiety in specific life activities. Results indicated that the MARS-E scores are correlated with scores on a mathematics test, the Stanford Achievement Test (SAT). Similarities in the average level of mathematics anxiety were found between Hispanics and the normative non-Hispanic group, but Hispanics scored lower on the SAT achievement test. Additional normative information is also provided to enable others to continue research with the MARS-E.
