The purpose of this research was to develop an scale to measure mathematics anxiety coping behavior of elementary school children. Of the first 45 items selected from a review of literature, 33 items were selected by content validation, modification and revision. Validity, reliability, and item discrimination was based in responses of 1,831 subjects. Data were analyzed by factor analysis, correlation, Cronbach's, $\alpha$, mean, standard deviation, percentages, and t-test. The resulting Scale of Children's Mathematics Anxiety Coping Behavior consisted of 26 items with 5 factors : active problem-solving, aggressive emotion expression, aversive coping, passive coping, and seeking social support. Cronbach's $\alpha$ ranged from .67 to .86 for five factors. T-test showed the 26 items of the scale to be discriminant.
