Inter­est­ing com­men­tary on Entre­pre­neurs and Math Anx­i­ety

Based on a research report that included

• “Math anx­i­ety feel­ings of dread and fear and avoid­ing math  can sap the brain’s lim­ited amount of work­ing capac­ity, a resource needed to com­pute dif­fi­cult math prob­lems, said Mark Ashcroft, a psy­chol­o­gist at the Uni­ver­sity of Nevada Los Vegas who stud­ies the problem.”
• “It turns out that math anx­i­ety occu­pies a person’s work­ing mem­ory, said Ashcroft, who spoke on a panel at the annual meet­ing of the Amer­i­can Asso­ci­a­tion for the Advance­ment of Sci­ence in San Francisco.”
