Investigate how perceived teaching practices—including positive teaching, student involvement, and teacher warmth—relate to students' control and value appraisals and achievement emotions in mathematics.
Assessed students (51.24% female) via self-reports measuring positive teaching, student involvement, teacher warmth, control and value appraisals, and mathematics achievement emotions in lessons and tests.
Evaluated relationships using two structural equation models along with configural, metric, scalar, and structural measurement invariance testing across sex and school level.
Positive teaching and teacher warmth were positively associated with both control and value appraisals.
Control appraisals consistently showed positive associations with positive emotions and negative associations with negative emotions, whereas value appraisals exhibited mixed associations, including a positive relation with anxiety.
Control appraisals mediated the associations of teacher warmth with enjoyment, pride, relaxation, and anxiety across both lesson and test contexts.
