The aim of this work is to map the relationship between pupils' experienced fear in mathematics lessons, their performance and other motivational variables.

The data collection took place in the form of a questionnaire survey, with the involvement of students of the second year of the four-year grammar school and the corresponding year of the six-year grammar school.

The results show a connection between the pupils' experience of fear, attitudes towards mathematics, partly also learning motivation and their average grade in this subject.
