Özet

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the 8thgrade students’ math achievement motivation and reflective thinking skills towards problem solving. The quantitative research method was used. The research was conducted with 461 students in public and private schools in İstanbul, Turkey. The data were gathered by the “Achievement Motivation Scale” developed by Umay (2002,a) and the “Reflective Thinking Skill Towards Problem Solving Scale” developed by Kızılkaya (2009). The research results show that the mean of the achievement motive scores (=22, 78; Sd=4,13) and the mean of the reflective thinking skill scale towards problem solving scale scores were (=33,84; Sd=11,70) found lower. In addition achievement motives scores were found positively and significantly correlated with the Reflective Thinking Skill Scale toward Problem Solving Scores (r=.63, n=461, p<.01). The findings of this study may help to explain why students are unsuccessful in mathematics or feel themselves as a failure in this lesson.
