PERANAN MOTIVASI BELAJAR MATEMATIKA, PERSEPSI TERHADAP PELAJARAN MATEMATIKA, DAN TINGKAT PENDIDIKAN ORANG TUA TERHADAP PRESTASI BELAJAR MATEMATIKA

ABSTRACT:  This  research  aims  to  find:  1)  the  relation  between  the  motivation  and  the achievement  in  learning  Mathematics.  2)  The  relation  between  the  perception  to Mathematics  and  the  achievement  in  learning  Mathematics.  3)  The  relation  between the parents’ education level and the achievement in learning Mathematics. 4) The role of motivation and perception in learning Mathematics and parents’ education level in the achievement in learning Mathematics. 
The hypotheses in this research are: 1) There is a positif relation between the motivation  and  the  achievement  in  learning  Mathematics.  2)  There  is  a  positif  relation  between  the  perception  to  Mathematics  and  the  achievement  in  learning Mathematics.  3)  There  is  a  positif  relation  between  the  father’s  education  level  and the achievement in learning Mathematics. 4) There is a positif   relation between the mother’s  education  level  and  the  achievement  in  learning  Mathematics  5)  The motivation in learning Mathematics, the perception to Mathematics, and the parents’ education level have a role in the achievement in learning Mathematics.
The research’s subject is 100 students class X and XI of SMAN 2 Yogyakarta. The data  were collected  by using scale, documentation, and identity. The  scale used was math motivation scale and math perception scale. The data analysis were done by using multiple linear regression and product moment correlation. Based on the correlation analysis done was known that there was positive and significant  relation  between    motivation  and  achievement  in  learning  Mathematics and  between  the  perception  of  Mathematics  and  the  achievement  in  learning Mathematics,  but  there  is  no  positive  and  significant  relation  between  father  and mother’s education level and the achievement in learning Mathematics. Based on the result  of  multiple  linear  regressions  analysis,  it  was  known  that  motivation  and perception in learning Mathematics as well as parents’ education level have a role in the  achievement  in  learning  Mathematics.  It  is  based  on  the  significant  result  of  F testing,  i.e.  α  =  0.05.  The  determination  of  coefficient  was  0.162  meant  that  the percentage  of  the  effect  of  motivation  and  perception  in  learning  Mathematics  and parents’  education  level  to  the  achievement  in  learning  Mathematics  was  16.2%, while the rest of 83.8% was influenced by other variables which were not included in this research.
Key words: motivation in learning Mathematics, perception to Mathematics, parents’ education level, the achievement in learning Mathematics
