Abstract	The Math and Me Survey was designed to measure elementary students' attitudes toward mathematics. The authors conducted content validation, exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, item response theory, reliability, and external validity analyses to improve it and to test its psychometric properties. The final Math and Me Survey consists of two scales: Mathematical Self-Perceptions and Enjoyment of Mathematics. (Contains 5 tables.) (As Provided).
