The Construct of Attitude in Mathematics Education [PDF]
This chapter addresses a number of crucial theoretical issues about research on attitude towards mathematics, a field that has a very long tradition in mathematics education, with early studies on attitude being published more than 60 years ago.

Stiffness‐Programmable Origami Robots With Tendon‐Driven Actuation via Multimaterial 3D Printing
Motion diversity is achieved in a tendon‐driven origami robot through programmable stiffness rather than modified actuation. Multimaterial 3D printing embeds soft creases, modular inserts redirect identical tendon inputs into distinct behaviors, and variable‐stiffness inserts enable real‐time switching.

Model Predictive Control for Magnetically Actuated Cellbots
Magnetically actuated cellbots, formed by embedding microrobots in living cells, are steered along precise paths using a model predictive controller enhanced with a Gaussian process disturbance estimator. The data‐efficient method calibrates each cellbot individually, cutting modeling error by roughly 60% and enabling accurate navigation through cell ...

Confirmatory Factor Analysis for Mathematics Attitude Scale
The current study aimed to validate Attitude Mathematics instrument (ATMI) by confirmatory factor analysis using AMOS program. This (ATMI) administered to 350 tenth grade students in schools in Irbid, Jordan. The students responded on a five- point Likert scale. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) supported the original six- factor correlated structure
