The Effect of Intelligence Quotient (IQ), Self-Regulated Learning, Mathematical Disposition, and Logical Thinking Ability Towards the Problem Solving Ability of Geometry in State Junior High School Students in Bandar Lampung City

Abstract

This research is conducted because there is no research report related to the problem solving of geometry in junior high school students in Bandar Lampung City, while the ability to solve the problem of geometry needs to get attention. The purpose of the research is to analyze the effect of intelligence quetient (IQ), self-regulated learning, mathematical disposition, and logical thinking ability towards the problem solving ability of geometry in state junior high school students in Bandar Lampung  City. The research used survey method with path analysis technique. Intelligence quetient (X₁), self-regulated learning (X₂), mathematical disposition (X₃), and logical thinking ability (X₄) as the exogenous variable. Problem solving ability of geometry (Y) as the endogenous variable. The results of the research indicate there is a positive direct effect of intelligence quotient, self-regulated learning, and logical thinking ability towards the problem solving ability of geometry. There is not a positive direct effect of mathematical disposition towards the problem solving ability of geometry.

Keywords: Intelligence Quotient, Self-Regulated Learning, Mathematical Disposition, Logical Thinking Ability, Problem Solving Ability of Geometry
