Abstract

This research has analyzed the meanings of attitudes towards mathematics by university students in multicultural contexts. It is a qualitative study with an approach from hermeneutic phenomenology with the participation of 40 university students in discussion groups. The processing and interpretation of the information was through the analysis of the manifest (literal) and latent (discourse) content. The results reveal that attitudes are qualities of men and women that are manifested as actions, behaviors, feelings, values, capacities and behaviors towards a construct or object by stimulating a reaction or a request in solving problems in multicultural contexts. It is concluded that there are proper and shared meanings in relation to attitudes and attitudinal factors towards mathematics.
