Fear of math may close job doors
Sheila Tobias, head of a firm that runs math anxiety seminars, says two thirds of professions require math skills. She notes fear of mathematics blocks women and minorities from advancing, and that even routine jobs or civil service exams reward mathematical reasoning even if algebra or calculus aren’t required. Tobias has studied occupational skills data and advocates anxiety-reduction seminars to address feelings before solving problems.
