Abstract
We used the quantitative method to compare with Chinese junior middle school students' mathematics belief systems in Chaoxian and Han nationalities, and their correlations within its own group. By comparison, the results revealed that all students in Han and Chaoxian nationalities hold multiple beliefs, and their belief systems are not stable. In addition, there were some differences and similarities between their belief systems in two nationalities, and significant correlations were founded.
