Creative thinking in mathematics is crucial for developing 21st-century skills, but students’ mathematical creative thinking (MCT) is often underdeveloped due to insufficient focus on noncognitive factors such as creative self-efficacy (CSE), attitude toward mathematics (ATM), creative style (CST), and environmental literacy (ELT). This study explored the mediating roles of CST and ELT in the relationship between CSE, ATM, and MCT. A cross-sectional design was used, involving secondary school students from Indonesia who participated voluntarily through an online survey. Validated self-report instruments measured the constructs, and data collection followed ethical guidelines, with students providing consent. Structural equation modeling was employed to analyze the data. The results showed positive, significant relationships among CSE, ATM, CST, ELT, and MCT, with CST and ELT mediating the effects of CSE and ATM on MCT. These findings highlight the importance of noncognitive factors in fostering mathematical creativity and suggest strategies to enhance MCT through these factors
