Abstract

A covariance analysis of arranges related to the process of mathematical discovery is currented The constructs are derived from Polya's ideas in succession problem solving and include sophistication, traits that predict affect, and emotion. The relative importance of these builds is investigated in specific vexed question solving situations. How the type is refined and validated is discussed. The analysis provides a foundation for exploring the nature of mathematical thinking during question at issue solving.


**********

The importance of affect and emotion during mathematical discovery and point in dispute solving has long been recognized (Dreger & Aiken, 1957; Higbee & Thomas, 1999) Emotion can organize, focus,
