Gender Disparities and Socioeconomic Influences on PISA 2022 Mathematics Performance: A Multidimensional Analysis of Filipino Students
Keywords:
Assessment, gender disparity, mathematics performance, PISAAbstract
This study examines gender disparities and the role of socioeconomic factors in mathematics performance among Filipino students using the 2022 PISA results. It examines gender differences across mathematics content areas, process subscales, socioeconomic backgrounds, and proficiency levels. The analysis highlights the distribution of male and female students across proficiency levels, considering motivational and structural influences on learning outcomes. Findings indicate that female students generally perform better across most mathematical domains, although male students showed slight advantages in parental education and occupational status. Male learners are more represented at the highest and lowest proficiency levels, with notable gaps at the lower end, whereas female students are concentrated in middle proficiency levels, reflecting a more balanced distribution. The findings highlight the need for targeted strategies to address performance gaps in mathematics literacy.
