THE EFFECT OF PARENTAL PARTICIPATION ON BEHAVIOR LEARNING MOTIVATION OF GRADE IV ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENTS

Abstract

This research is motivated by the emergence of student attitudes that look less motivated when learning at home during the pandemic. This is because students do not get pleasant attention from parents. This study is used to answer the main problem, namely whether there is an effect of parental participation on students' learning motivation. and how big is the influence of parental participation on students' learning motivation? The type of research used is a quantitative approach with a survey method, where the questionnaire as a research tool with data analysis is carried out by conducting interviews, questionnaires, observations, and a combination of the three.

The results showed that the consistent value of the student's learning motivation variable was 19, 445. The regression coefficient of parental participation was 1.018, meaning that for every 1% addition to the value of parental participation, the value of student learning motivation increased by 1.018. Based on the t value, it is known that the t-count value is 5.860 > t-table 2.306 so it can be concluded that parental participation influences the learning motivation of fourth-grade elementary school students. Furthermore, the coefficient of determination (R Square) is 0.811, which means that the influence of the parental participation variable on the learning motivation of fourth-grade elementary school students is 81.1%. Therefore, parents must be able to create a conducive learning atmosphere at home. If a conducive learning atmosphere at home is created, children will be more motivated to want to learn.
