This study was aimed to identify the relationship between problem solving skills, metacognitive awareness, and mathematics achievement as well as to identify the role of metacognitive awareness as a mediator. This study involved a total of 333 Form Four students from ten secondary schools in Malaysia. Data were collected using questionnaires, while information about mathematics achievement was provided by the school management. Data were analyzed using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) technique. Results indicated that all variables correlated significantly with each other, while path analysis revealed the mediation effect of metacognitive awareness between problem solving skills and mathematics achievement. The findings suggest the importance of problem solving skills in influencing secondary school students’ mathematics achievement through the development of metacognitive awareness.

This study aimed to identify the levels of meta-behavioural skills among students from the categories of students without problem behaviour (SWOPB) and students with problem behaviour (SWPB). The sample of the study comprised 803 respondents, 398 students from the SWOPB category and 405 from the SWPB category. Meta-Behavioural Self-Evaluation questionnaire was used to measure meta-behavioural skills of the respondents. Research findings show that the meta-behavioural skills of students from the SWOPB category were better compared to SWPB. The findings also show that both groups lack conditional knowledge which is an important aspect of effective behaviour regulation, but the score for the SWPB group is very low (mean=1.55) as compared to the SWOPB group (mean =2.34). It can be hypothesized that conditional knowledge is one of the factors that should be promoted to help decrease problematic behaviour in schools.
