- Abstract
The research draws on the Multidimensional Paradigm proposed by Marlene Schommer et al, to determine the dimensions of epistemological beliefs about mathematics that relate to the achievement of this subject. 522 students attended junior high school in the province of Villa Clara. It was found that students have little productive beliefs for learning this science affecting learning outcomes, so for example, when they believe in the simplicity of mathematical knowledge, in the presence of an authority as a source in which lies the information not they are able to learn self-determined way; learning of mathematics does not require personal effort, but it is a skill that has at birth worse performance. Positive correlations between performance and relative dimension Knowledge indicate that when students believe that mathematical knowledge is relative get better results.
