Abstract
The study used a descriptive correlational method to examine the relationship between student anxiety and resiliency in Grade 7 mathematics performance. It involved 336 Grade 7 students from three public high schools in Mandaue City, Cebu. The frequency count, percentage, weighted mean, and Pearson's r were used to treat the data. The study revealed that most of the respondents were 11 to 12 years old and were female. It also said that most parents were high school graduates with a combined monthly income of 10,000 or below. The academic performance of the respondents was reasonably satisfactory. It was found that there is a negligible positive correlation between math anxiety and the respondents' academic performance in Mathematics.Moreover, there is a negligible positive correlation between the resiliency at home and school and the respondents' academic performance in Mathematics. It was concluded that math anxiety and resiliency affect the respondents' academic performance in Mathematics. The researchers recommend that the proposed action plan can be used and monitored
