Abstract
The study aimed to know the description of student’s mathematical reasoning ability and student’s emotional intelligence, to find out whether there were differences in the mathematical reasoning ability between students who used and those who did not use working backward problem solving strategy, identify whether there were differences in mathematical reasoning ability between students who used and those who did not use working backward problem solving strategy in terms of the emotional intelligence, and to find out whether there was an influence of interaction on the working backward problem solving strategy towards the mathematical reasoning ability in terms of the emotional intelligence of the students of grade VIII of MTsN 1 Makassar. The study used the quantitative approach with 3×2 factorial design. The population of the study were the students of grade VIII of MTsN 1 Makassar consisting of 440 students with 80 students as the samples (2 classes). The data analysis technique used was descriptive statistical and inferential statistical analysis. The findings of the study showed that (1) the mathematical reasoning ability of the students who used and those who did not use the working backward problem solving strategy were in the high category, meanwhile the students’ emotional intelligence was in the medium category, (2)there were differences in the mathematical reasoning abilities between students who used and those who did not use working backward problem solving strategy, (3)there were differences in mathematical reasoning ability between students who used and those who did not use working backward problem solving strategy in terms of student’s emotional intelligence, and (4)there was no interaction effect of working backward problem solving strategy towards the mathematical reasoning ability in terms of the emotional intelligence of the students of grade VIII of MTsN 1 Makassar
