Abstract
This study investigated the factors affecting secondary school students' attitudes towards
mathematics in Nagongera, Tororo district, Uganda. A cross-sectional survey of 120 students
revealed that background environment, parental involvement, and learning styles
significantly impact students' attitudes. The findings show that students' attitudes directly
influence their mathematics performance. Parental encouragement fosters a positive attitude
towards mathematics. The study recommends organizing seminars and workshops to promote
positive attitudes towards mathematics. However, further research is needed to explore other
influencing factors, such as gender bias, to address the existing gap in research
