Abstract
Analysis of Student’s Creative Thinking Ability in Mathematical Problem Solving in Terms of Extrovert and Introvert Personality Types. This research is motivated by differences in personality types that cause differences in creative thinking ability based on its level. Therefore, indicators of creative thinking ability used are fluency, flexibility, and originality. The research method used is descriptive with a qualitative approach. The research subjects were 4 students of class X IPS MA An-Nur Cirebon City which were selected based on consideration of the results of personality tests. The instruments used were personality tests, tests of creative thinking ability, and interviews. Data analysis techniques include data reduction, triangulation, data presentation, and concluding. The results showed that: (1) Students who tended extrovert personality types were at the level of creative thinking ability 1 (less creative). (2) Students who tended introvert personality types were at the level of creative thinking ability 3 (creative)
Highlights
Mathematics is a science that is not far from the reality of human life
The results of this study consisted of grouping personality types obtained from personality tests, results of mathematical problem-solving tests, and the results of interviews with research subjects
Based on the results of tests and interviews of the four subjects, it is known that students' creative thinking abilities in solving mathematical problems in terms of extroverted personality types show students have difficulty understanding the problems that exist in the problem so they have to read it over and over again
Summary
Personality disposition is carried out Mathematics is a science that is not far from the reality of human life. Based on the Field Experience Practices (PPL) activities that researchers conducted previously, information obtained that in reality there are still many students who have difficulty in solving mathematical problems, especially in class X IPS MA An-Nur Cirebon which is the focus of this study In this class, there are various types of personalities, all students are female. It does not rule out the possibility that differences in personality types will cause different thinking abilities in each individual, especially in the realm of creative thinking In this regard, several factors cause students difficulty in solving divergent mathematical problems, one of which is that students lack understanding of what they often face and are considered difficult so that students do not explore the answers. Researchers conducted a study entitled "Analysis of Students' Creative Thinking Ability in Solving Mathematical Problems in terms of Extrovert and Introvert Personality Types"
