Abstract
The study examined the effects of integrating emotional intelligence on
students' achievement and attitudes toward Mathematics. The research
employed a quasi-experimental design involving two non-equivalent study
group samples receiving different treatment. Focus was on the Mathematics
subject at the lower secondary level. A total of 253 students were involved as
research participants. The research involved two groups: a control and an
experimental group. The experimental group received classroom instruction
which integrates emotional intelligence (PKE) while the control group received
normal classroom instruction (PBG). Data were collected over a period of nine
weeks. A pre-test was conducted in the first week followed by seven weeks of
instruction. A post-test was carried out in the final week. The Mathematics
Achievement Test Multiple Choice Item (MATMI) and Mathematics
Achievement Test Subjective Item (MATSI) were used as instruments to
measure students' achievement in the subject. The Attitudes Toward
Mathematics Inventory (ATMI) was used to gauge students' attitudes toward
Mathematics. The inventory comprises four sub-scales which are selfconfidence,
values, enjoyment and motivation. Data collected were analyzed
using ANCOVA and MANCOVA. Research results show that generally PKE
has statistically significant effects on students' achievement and attitudes
toward Mathematics. Students in the experimental group perform better in the
tests. The results also reveal that PKE has significantly increased students'
confidence, enjoyment and motivation towards Mathematics. No gender bias
was detected for attitudes toward Mathematics in general and in the sub-scales
of self-confidence, enjoyment and motivation. Generally, research results show
that the integration of emotional intelligence in teaching and learning process
has significantly increased students' achievement and attitudes toward
Mathematics.
