Abstract
The current research aimed to identify the level of analytical thinking among the students of the fourth scientific grade and its relationship to their achievement in mathematics. The research sample consisted of (178) students from the fourth scientific grade for the academic year (2022-2023 AD), who were selected from the students of Al-Siddiq Preparatory School for Boys in the city of Mosul, To achieve the goal of the research, the researcher prepared two tests: the first is the analytical thinking test, which consisted in its final form of (20) four-alternative items, and the second was an achievement test that consisted of (10) semi-essay items. After collecting the data and analyzing it statistically, the following results were reached:
- The level of analytical thinking among fourth-grade students is above the hypothetical average
- The level of mathematics achievement among fourth grade students is above the hypothetical average.
- There is a statistically significant difference in both analytical thinking and mathematics achievement among the research sample individuals between the achieved average and the hypothetical average, in favor of the achieved average
- There is a positive, strong and statistically significant correlation between analytical thinking and mathematics achievement.
In the light of the results of the research, the researcher came out with a number of recommendations, including: Directing teachers of mathematical mathematics in the preparatory stage to adopt modern teaching methods and methods that develop thinking in general, and analytical thinking in particular, to raise their level of achievement, which will be reflected in raising their level in the rest of the scientific subjects, and as a complement For the current research, the researcher made proposals for future research.
