The aim of this study was to test a mediation model in which basic probabilistic ability was associated with achievement through statistics anxiety. Results provided evidence that statistics anxiety mediates the relationship between basic probabilistic ability and achievement. More specifically, greater basic ability appears to be negatively related to statistics anxiety, which in turn is negatively related to achievement. Some implications for developing intervention programs could be derived from these findings.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to test a mediation model in which basic probabilistic ability was associated with achievement through statistics anxiety. Results provided evidence that statistics anxiety mediates the relationship between basic probabilistic ability and achievement. More specifically, greater basic ability appears to be negatively related to statistics anxiety, which in turn is negatively related to achievement. Some implications for developing intervention programs could be derived from these findings.
