Abstract	Problem-solving is the process of using concepts and mathematical methods to solve problems involving physical phenomena. Scaffolding techniques have been proven to improve students' proficiency in this area. This study looks at how stepwise guide questions, used as a scaffolding tool in problem-solving instruction, affect students' attitudes and approaches to problem-solving. The study involved students enrolled in the General Physics 2 class. The AAPS survey was used to collect students' attitudes and approaches prior to the intervention. After using stepwise guide questions in instruction, the students' attitudes and approaches were investigated to track improvement from pre-intervention. The findings revealed that, overall, students' attitudes and approaches improved following intervention. Significant progress was made, particularly in the areas of metacognition in problem-solving, their perception of the importance of illustrations and diagrams in problem-solving, and their difficulty in solving problems symbolically. As a result, the researchers recommend adapting the use of stepwise guide questions in problem-solving classes. To support its effectiveness in instruction, future researchers may investigate the impact of this intervention on students' academic performance in problem-solving subjects.
