Self-Efficacy and Students’ Mathematics Learning Ability in Indonesia: A Meta Analysis Study

Abstract

Improving self-efficacy in the learning process of Mathematics is very important as the key to success in learning Mathematics.Self-efficacy in learning mathematics is a belief in one's ability to solve mathematical problems.Many studies have been conducted on the relationship between self-efficacy and students' mathematics learning ability in Indonesia.However, there are different representations or conclusions regarding the results of this study.Therefore, this study aims to examine the relationship of self-efficacy to students' mathematics learning ability in Indonesia using a meta-analysis approach.This study analyzed 40 research publications in national and international journals that were screened with certain eligibility criteria.The effect size in this study was determined by an acceptable 95% confidence level.To support the accuracy of the calculations used JASP software.The results of the study found that the effect size value generated by using the random-effect model estimation in the research analyzed was (M* = 0.65) with the lower limit of the confidence interval (LLM* = 0.51) and the upper limit of the confidence interval (ULM* = 0.80).This correlation measure is included in the strong category.These findings indicate that there is a positive and significant relationship between self-efficacy and students' mathematics learning ability in Indonesia.This means that the higher the self-efficacy, the higher the mathematical ability, and the lower the self-efficacy, the lower the mathematical ability.These findings will provide a solid theoretical foundation to improve students' mathematical achievement in the future.
