If the thought of a math test makes you break out in a cold sweat, Mom or Dad may be partly to blame.

如果想到數(shù)學(xué)測(cè)驗(yàn)會(huì)讓你出一身冷汗，你的爸媽可能要承擔(dān)些責(zé)任。

The researchers believe the link between parents’math anxiety and children’s math performance stems more from math attitudes than genetics.

研究者們認(rèn)為，父母的“數(shù)學(xué)焦慮”對(duì)子女?dāng)?shù)學(xué)成績(jī)的影響，更多地是由于(畏懼?jǐn)?shù)學(xué)的)態(tài)度在起作用，而非遺傳作用。

“Although it is possible that there is a genetic component to math anxiety,” the researchers wrote, “the fact that parents’ math anxiety negatively affected children only when they frequently helped them with math homework points to the need for interventions focused on both decreasing parents’ math anxiety and scaffolding their skills in homework help.”

“盡管‘數(shù)學(xué)焦慮’可能在一定程度上受到遺傳因素的影響，”研究者們寫道，“然而事實(shí)上，我們的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，只有當(dāng)父母頻繁地輔導(dǎo)子女?dāng)?shù)學(xué)功課時(shí)，才會(huì)把自身的‘數(shù)學(xué)焦慮’傳染到子女身上。因此不僅應(yīng)該關(guān)注如何降低‘父母的數(shù)學(xué)焦慮’，還應(yīng)該關(guān)注如何提高父母輔導(dǎo)功課的技巧。”

These tools might include math books, computer and traditional board games, or Internet apps that “allow parents to interact with their children around math in positive ways,” the researchers wrote.

研究者們提出了一些建議，比如借助數(shù)學(xué)參考書、電腦和桌面游戲、以及網(wǎng)絡(luò)應(yīng)用，父母可以更積極地與子女互動(dòng)，以利于數(shù)學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)。
