摘要：This study explored correlation between changes of consciousness and academic achievement about mathematics across the 3 years on junior high school in Japan. The purpose of this study was to develop and assess the item of consciousness about mathematics in junior high school. For that reason a 3-year longitudinal survey was conducted in a private junior high school for three generations. First, an exploratory factor analysis was conducted, which extracted two factors: “Interest score” and “Quantitative learning score”. Then, correlations between the two factors and academic achievement were investigated. Results indicated that Interest score had a strong correlation with academic achievement for mathematics and the Quantitative learning score had a weak correlation with academic achievement. These results suggest that educational activities focusing on the consciousness about mathematics are useful for improving mathematical education of junior high school students.
