It shows 10.53% applying, 89.47% reasoning, but not showing a percentage on knowing cognitive domain. Results of the question items analysis on knowing and applying cognitive domain for both the books are less percentage than reasoning cognitive domain. Thus, the results of analysis of two textbooks are not yet in accordance with TIMSS. Nevertheless, the comparison of the analysis on knowing cognitive domain in a book published by PT.
