Abstract	The aim of this study is to determine mathematics anxiety levels of prospective primary school teachers and prospective primary mathematics teachers and whether their mathematics anxiety differs according to some variables by assessing the mathematics anxiety from different aspects.

Furthermore, it has been determined that there is no significant difference of their anxiety according to department of them, second-year prospective teachers have higher mathematics anxiety compared to fourth-years and female prospective teachers have more mathematics anxiety than males.
