This article presents findings from a pilot study that examined the effect of a school counselor-led intervention, using the “Skill-Builders” curriculum, on middle-school students’ attitudes toward mathematics learning. Results from the current study demonstrated that students who received the Skill-Builders curriculum had significantly higher posttest scores on a measure of attitudes toward mathematics learning, including self-confidence, value, enjoyment, and motivation. Females in the Skill-Builders group improved significantly more than their male classmates. Implications and directions for future research are discussed.
