title = "ATTITUDES, GENDER AND ATTAINMENT: EVIDENCE FROM A LARGE-SCALE SURVEY IN ENGLAND",
abstract = "In this paper we present some preliminary data from the ESRC funded ICCAMS project about current student attitudes to mathematics at Key Stage 3 in England. We compare attitudes by sex and by attainment. Whilst the data largely confirms existing findings, an unexpected result was that a very high proportion of students responded that, for mathematical success, effort was more important than ability. We also present some interview data concerning student attitudes.",
