Implication

Conceptual replication study reveals problem type shapes task-specific interest and performance in students and pre-service teachers, highlighting divergent preferences for real-world context.

Key Points

Task-specific interest diverges between cohorts, as students favor intramathematical problems whereas pre-service teachers prefer problems linked to reality.
In assessments of 80 ninth-grade students and 80 pre-service teachers, performance peaked on word problems and correlated with task-specific interest.
Conceptual replication evaluated intramathematical problems, word problems, and modelling problems, supporting cross-national comparisons with German cohorts.
