Matematyczna socjalizacja poznawcza a kulturowe funkcjonowanie jednostki
Mathematical cognitive socialisation and functioning in culture

Summary/Abstract: In the era of universal mathematics education in the civilised world and a general ability to perform calculations, the size of social awkwardness in maths is surprising. Despite the fact that mathematics is considered a vital part of the “rational man power”, a lot of people have a kind of “mathemaphobia” – mainly developed by the school. The specificity of each area of knowledge is the source of the impact of hidden content in different but intersecting areas of an individual. In the social sciences they are more associated with the filtering of information on the wider social relations, while science is an area of cognitive interactions directed towards nature. The teaching of mathematics, as well as other subjects at school, brings a certain message as part of the hidden curriculum.
