STUDI KUANTITATIF PENGARUH KEPERCAYAAN DIRI DAN IDE-IDE KREATIF SISWADALAM MENGUASAI KONSEP MATEMATIKA
Main Article Content
Abstract
This research explores the influence of students' self-confidence and creative thinking on their ability to understand and master mathematical concepts. Employing a quantitative correlational method, the study involved 30 junior high school students who completed a self-confidence scale and a mathematics test focused on least common multiple and greatest common divisor topics. The findings demonstrate that both self-confidence and creativity significantly contribute—individually and collectively—to students’ mathematical achievement. The results emphasize the need for mathematics education to cultivate not only cognitive competence but also affective factors, such as confidence and creative problem-solving skills, to support deeper conceptual mastery and improved academic outcomes.
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis sejauh mana kepercayaan diri dan kemampuan berpikir kreatif siswa memengaruhi penguasaan konsep matematika. Melalui pendekatan kuantitatif korelasional, data dikumpulkan dari 30 siswa kelas IX menggunakan angket kepercayaan diri serta tes tertulis terkait materi KPK dan FPB. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa kedua variabel bebas — kepercayaan diri dan kreativitas — berkontribusi secara simultan dan signifikan terhadap prestasi belajar matematika. Temuan ini menegaskan pentingnya mengembangkan aspek psikologis dan kognitif siswa dalam proses pembelajaran matematika agar tercapai pemahaman konsep yang lebih optimal dan hasil akademik yang lebih baik.
