Pengaruh Motivasi Belajar dan Kemandirian Belajar Terhadap Prestasi Akademik Siswa

Abstrak

Achievement of students’ academic performance is influenced not only by cognitive abilities but also by internal factors supporting the learning process, particularly learning motivation and independence. This study aims to analyze the effect of learning motivation and learning independence on students’ academic achievement. The research used a quantitative approach with a correlational design involving 120 students selected through proportionate random sampling. Data were collected using questionnaires measuring learning motivation and learning independence, while academic achievement data were obtained from student learning outcomes documentation. Instrument validity and reliability were tested before analysis. Data analysis included descriptive statistics, prerequisite tests, and multiple linear regression analysis. The results revealed that learning motivation and learning independence had positive and significant effects on academic achievement. Both variables simultaneously contributed significantly to students’ academic achievement. These findings highlight the importance of strengthening internal learning factors to improve academic outcomes. Schools and teachers are encouraged to implement strategies that foster motivation, self-regulated learning, and active student participation. Further research should explore additional factors affecting academic achievement, including learning environment, teacher support, and digital literacy in future studies.
