Homework reflects an assessment pattern used by teachers to improve students commitment and engagement in education. However, parents attitudesare essential in childrens commitment to completing their homework. The purpose of the present study was to investigate students mathematics homework behavior based on their parents attitude towards mathematics. One hundred and fourteen parents drawn from different locations in Onitsha and Awka in Anambra state, Nigeria, participated in the study. The respondents completed a self-report measure of the Parents Attitude Towards Mathematics scale and the Mathematics Homework Behavior Scale (MHBS). The linear regression analysis conducted on the data indicated a statistically positive interaction between parents attitudes towards mathematics and the students mathematics homework behavior. The study concludes that parental attitude tow...

A new class of contractive mappings on dislocated metric space, called the class of 3 alpha\alphaalpha-contractive mappings is introduced. Using some classical results, new fixed point theorems are established in dislocated metric spaces for the class of 3$\alpha$-contractive mappings. Concrete examples and an application of our theorems to establishment of existence of solution of certain two-point boundary value problem are given. As further findings of this research, certain anomalies detected in the existing literature are corrected.
