The Correlation Habit of Mind Mathematics and Mathematical-Problem Solving Ability On The Subject Two-Dimensional Figure

Abstract

This research already existed before, but this research is different. The purpose of this study is to identify whether there is a positive correlation between habit of mind mathematics and mathematical problem solving abilities of students on the subject two-dimensional figure. This research is classified as quantitative correlational research. The population in this study were all seventh grade students at MTs. Negeri Sumedang 2016/2017 academic year. The sample is class VII D students with purposive sampling technique. The test instrument was a test of mathematical problem solving ability and a mathematical habit of mind attitude scale. The technical data analysis uses simple linear regression analysis. The results of this study are that there is a positive correlation between habit of mind mathematics and mathematical problem solving abilities for middle school students.
