Abstract

The objectives of this research are: (1) to find theoretical model that can illustrate the science Proficiency of Indonesian students, (2) to know the factor factors that predominantly influence the science Proficiency of Indonesian students. The research was conducted using ex post facto method using PISA 2015 data for Indonesia as many as 6088student responses. Data analysing used structural equation modelling which involve 14 observed variables and 3 latent variables and limited to the variables measured at student level. The research result showed that the Science Proficiency of Indonesian students are positively influenced by the background students and the quality of science learning. Student backgrounds can be indicated by Index of economic, social and cultural status and ICT Resources. The quality of science learning can be shown by indicators: disciplinary climate in science classes, teacher motivation in science classes of student choices, teacher-directed science instruction, and perceiving feedback. Science Proficiency of Indonesian students can be shown by indicators: environmental awareness, science self-efficacy, epistemological beliefs, sense of belonging to school, and plausibly value of science. The results also show that the background aspect of Indonesian students is more dominant in influencing science proficiency than the quality of learning.
