Considering the importance and necessity of the subject, modeling between Ned Herrmann brain quadrants, mathematical thinking components and mathematical performance of students are some of the measures that reinforce basic concepts of mathematical learning and consequently enhance students' math scores. The purpose of this study that is entitled “modeling between Ned Herrmann brain quadrants, mathematical thinking components and mathematical performance of students among high school students” conducted in order to determine investigate the relationship between Ned Herrmann brain quadrants, mathematical thinking components and mathematical performance of girl students in eighth and ninth grade. Based on the purpose of the study, the research methodology is applied, and based on the method, it is correlation. The method of data collection is field method, and the required data is extracted through a questionnaire. The statistical population included all 8th and 9th grade female students in the second semester of the academic year 1398-99 that were 430 students where the sample size was considered 200 students with the help of Krejcie and Morgan table. For data collection, three questionnaires of Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument (HBDI) (four brain quadrants), mathematical thinking test, mathematical performance questions were used for data collection. For data analysis, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was employed to investigate the normality of data and structural equation test was used to analyze the research hypothesis. The results revealed that there is a positive and direct relationship between Ned Herrmann brain quadrants and mathematical thinking components with math performance in eighth and ninth grade students at 95% confidence level; and also, based on the input data from various sources for these two groups of eighth and ninth-grade students, the ranking of different individuals was examined.
