The survey model was employed in the research. Four hundred twenty-four high school students constitute the study group from public high school. Data were collected through the “Mathematics-Oriented Epistemological Belief Scale” and the “Mathematics Motivation Scale.” The Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal-Wallis H tests were used to analyze the data. The findings showed a significant positive relationship at a moderate level between the belief that learning depends on effort with motivation, a weak and negative significant relationship between the belief that learning depends on ability with motivation and a negative and insignificant relationship between the belief that there is only one truth with motivation. The mathematical epistemological beliefs and mathematical motivations of high school students differ statistically in terms of gender, mother's education level, and daily studying time. However, they do not differ statistically regarding out-of-school support, technology, internet use, class level, father's education level, or perceived income level.  \nKeywords: Mathematical belief, mathematics motivation, high school student.  \n1. Introduction  \nThe common competence of different types of knowledge, skills and beliefs provides sensitivity and disposition to use them (Perkins, 1995) . Epistemological beliefs express individuals' views on knowledge and knowing (Bråten, 2010) . Beliefs serve as an indicator for learning and teaching, as they form a system that organizes the background of thoughts and actions (Pehkonen & Törner, 1996) . Thus, it affects learning and the degree to which understanding is advanced (Hofer, 2002) . An individual's beliefs about what to consider as mathematical context and what will be essential or exciting are closely related to the situations in which s/he will be engaged and sensitive (Op't Eynde et al., 2002) . Beliefs strongly influence pupils' evaluation of their talents, willingness to participate in mathematics tasks, and mathematical tendencies (National Council of Teachers of Mathematics [NCTM] 1989) . According to De Corte et al. (2000), an individual's mathematical beliefs are also effective in acquiring mathematical disposition. Therefore, students' mathematical beliefs are closely related to their learning outcomes (Furinghetti & Pehkonen, 2000) .  \nMotivation is described as interrelated beliefs and feelings that affect and direct behavior (Wentzel, 1999) . Martin (2005) described motivation as the energy and urge to learn, study effectively, and realize one's potential. Motivation is needed to initiate and maintain the behaviors necessary to achieve a targeted performance. Motivation guides actions by keeping focus on the goal and increasing the effort required to overcome difficulties (Usher & Schunk, 2018) . Factors such as belief in the ability to overcome difficulties and achieve results, effort, and allocating time and resources can be determinative in the motivation of the individual (Philippou & Christou, 2002) . Students who understand motivation and the factors that affect it will be able to intervene when they feel the need and they are likely to be more successful (Martin, 2005) . The value given to a task (Wigfield & Eccles, 2000) and self-belief (Martin, 2007) contribute to student motivation.  \n1.1. Mathematical beliefs  \nMathematical beliefs include approaches to nature, sources, proof, justifications, and acquisition of mathematical knowledge (Schoenfeld, 1985) . Mathematical beliefs help establish general goals that define contexts and meanings for learning mathematics (Cobb, 1986) and are one of the components of mathematical disposition (NCTM, 1989).
