The purpose of the research is to investigate the relationships between visual mathematics literacy self-efficacy perceptions (VMLSP) and metacognitive reading comprehension awareness (MRCA). The research was conducted with 301 students who are enrolled in middle schools (7th grade) where a city is located in the Eastern Black Sea Region. The present study was done with a total of 301 students. The VMLSP scale, developed by Duran (2011) was used as a data collection tool in this study. And MRCA scale, which was developed by Gelen (2003) and Çakıroğlu (2007) extracted some items from this scale and then performed its validity and reliability. The research was conducted according to the relational model as a quantitative research method. SPSS 19.0 program was used to analyze the data. Simple correlation analysis and simple linear regression analysis were used in the analysis of the data. For this study, Cronbach s alpha reliability coefficients of visual mathematics literacy self-efficacy perceptions (VMLSP) and metacognitive reading comprehension awareness scales were .94 and .77respectively. As a result of the study, it was found that there is a moderate correlation (r = .51) in the positive direction between the above mentioned structures. Independent sample t test was used as an analysis method in order to determine whether there is a difference according to the sex in terms of the variables of interest. Discussions of research findings in the current study were given in more detail.
