Abstract (2. Language): 
This study aims to determine the predictive power of math anxiety and perceived social support from teacher for mathematics achievement of primary students. The sample was consisted of 292 Primary School students (156 girls and 136 boys) attending 7th and 8th grade. For such a correlational study, “Math Anxiety Scale” developed by Erol (***) to determine student’ mathematics anxiety and “Perceived Social Support Scale-Revised/Teacher Support Subscale” developed by Yıldırm (***) to determine students’ teacher support perception were used. Averages of students’ mathematics scores in the first term of 2007-2008 academic year were taken as mathematic achievement scores. The obtained data were analyzed by means of a package program for Windows called SPSS 11.5. Independent-Sample t Test, Pearson Correlation Analyze and Regression Analyze were employed to analyze the obtained data. Results of the study revealed that math anxiety and teacher support are significant predictors of students’ math achievements. Math anxiety is a more powerful predictor for male students’ math achievements regarding gender. For female students, teacher support is a more powerful predictor for math achievement.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Bu çalısmanın amacı, ögrencilerinin matematik dersi kaygıları ile algıladıkları ögretmen sosyal desteginin matematik basarılarını yordama gücünün belirlenmesidir. Arastırmanın çalısma grubunu 5stanbul’da bir ilkögretim okulunda 2007–2008 egitim ögretim bahar yarıyılında okuyan 156’sı kız, 136’sı erkek olmak üzere toplam 292 ilkögretim 7. ve 8. sınıf ögrencisi olusturmaktadır. 5liskisel tarama türü olan bu arastırmada ögrencilerin matematik kaygısı puanlarını belirlemek amacıyla Erol tarafından gelistirilen “Matematik Kaygısı Ölçegi”, ögrencilerin algıladıkları ögretmen sosyal destegi puanlarını belirlemek amacıyla Yıldırım tarafından gelistirilen Algılanan Sosyal Destek Ölçegi’nin ”Ögretmen Destegi Alt Ölçegi” kullanılmıstır. Ögrencilerin dönem sonu matematik dersi ortalamaları matematik basarı puanı olarak kabul edilmistir. Verilerin çözümlenmesinde Bagımsız Gruplar t Testi, Pearson Korelasyon Analizi ve Çoklu Regresyon Analizi istatistiksel yöntemleri kullanılmıstır. Verilerin analizinde SSPS 11,5 Windows için istatistik paket programından yararlanılmıstır. Arastırmanın bulguları, matematik kaygısı ve ögretmen desteginin ögrencilerin matematik basarılarının anlamlı yordayıcısı olduklarını ortaya çıkarmıstır. Cinsiyete göre bakıldıgı zaman, erkek ögrenciler için matematik kaygısı, kız ögrenciler için ise ögretmen destegi puanın matematik basarısını daha fazla yordadıgı görülmüstür.
