Abstrakt: We explored 5th through 11th grade students' mathematics identity and mathematical agency through a cross-sectional analysis. Results indicate changes in these measures with significant decreases in mathematics identity from 5th to 6th grade as well as 8th to 10th and 11th grade. However, a significant increase in mathematics identity was found from 6th to 8th and 9th grade. Mathematical agency also significantly shifted between grade levels, particularly with the subconstructs collective and disciplinary/conceptual agency, which had a similar trend as mathematics identity. This study highlights the potential for meaningful changes in mathematics identity and mathematical agency across students' schooling. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
