Gender differences and psychological attributes have important role in learning process and achievement, including in mathematics fields. The psychological attributes have different effect to students' achievement based on the gender. This study aims to compare the impact of competitiveness, fear of failure and resilience to mathematics achievement between male and female students using PISA 2018 in.Indonesia. The total students included were 10,379 of 15 years old students (4,932 males and 5,447 females) from 397 different schools in Indonesia. Multilevel analysis used to examine the effect of the predictors in hierarchical structures (individual-level and school-level). Based on the analysis, the multilevel analyses results found that the competitiveness and fear of failure were significant relationship to mathematics achievements, while resilience was not significant. The girls had higher math score, more competitive and dare to failure than boys. However, boys showed better resilience but the differences were not significant. © 2022 Author(s).
