Academic Emotions And It's Influential Factors Of MathematicsLearning Disabilities Students In Middle School

Academic emotions are various emotional experiences that directly linked to academic learning, classroom instruction, and academic achievement. Academic emotions are important non-intelligence factor that don't only affect the study progress and academic achievement, but also influence students' psychological and physical heath. In order to find out the characteristics of academic emotions of mathematics learning disabilities students, as well as analyze the influence factors of academic emotion, it was investigated among 330 students in five middle schools in Shanghai. The results showed:(1) Significant effects of grade and gender between students with and without mathematics learning disabilities are found. The students with mathematics learning disabilities have more negative academic emotions and less positive academic emotions than the students without mathematics learning disabilities.(2) Significant differences between students with and without learning disabilities were reported in different grades in middle school.(3) The male and female students with and without mathematics learning disabilities in middle school have different characteristics in the negative-low arousal emotions.(4) Academic emotions of mathematics learning disabilities students in middle school as a whole has significant grade difference, especially in Grade two, the mathematics learning disabilities students have more negative academic emotions and less positive academic emotions.(5) The negative-low arousal emotions have the significant gender difference, and the male students with mathematics learning disabilities have more boredom and hopelessness emotion.(6) Academic emotions are affected by individual internal factors and external factors. Achievement goals, academic self-concept, mathematical beliefs and personalityly have significant effect on academic emotions of the students with mathematics learning disabilities; Parents' mathematical beliefs, the relationship between teachers and students and competition affect significantly academic emotions of the students with mathematics learning disabilities.Based on the analysis of the characteristics and influence factors of academic emotions, some suggestions were given. It may help the teachers in practice and alse served as reference to the other researchers in this field.
