Critical thinking in mathematics education: A bibliometric analysis
Mathematical critical thinking is one of the most important skills that students must possess. The ability to think critically in mathematics is an essential skill that can be developed through effective teaching practices and student engagement. This article presents the questions to be investigated regarding critical thinking using bibliometric analysis. Bibliometric analysis is a method used to analyze research articles related to a chosen topic. The data source for this analysis is Scopus. The search was filtered by subject area, document type, language, and publication year. According to the results from Scopus, a total of 148 documents related to mathematical critical thinking were obtained from 2019 until May 2023. Based on the co-occurrence analysis of authors' keywords, besides 'critical thinking' and 'critical thinking skills', 'secondary school' and 'secondary education' appeared most frequently, with 6 occurrences. These trends in the number of articles can provide insights into the research interests in this field
PENGARUH SELF-EFFICACY TERHADAP KEMAMPUAN BERPIKIR KRITIS MATEMATIS SISWA SMP
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh self-efficacy terhadap kemampuan berpikir kritis siswa SMP. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan metode deskriptif-korelasional. Populasi dari penelitian ini adalah seluruh siswa kelas VIII pada salah satu SMP Negeri kota Bandung. Sampel dalam penelitian dipilih sebanyak 60 siswa. Data yang diperoleh merupakan hasil dari instrumen tes kemampuan berpikir kritis matematis dan instrumen pernyataan self-efficacy melalui media google form. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan besar pengaruh dari self-efficacy pada dimensi magnitude terhadap kemampuan berpikir kritis matematis siswa SMP yaitu 11,70%. Besar pengaruh dari self-efficacy pada dimensi strength terhadap kemampuan berpikir kritis matematis siswa SMP yaitu 5,05%. Besar pengaruh dari self-efficacy pada dimensi generality terhadap kemampuan berpikir kritis matematis siswa SMP yaitu 6,81%. Secara keseluruhan, besar pengaruh Self-Efficacy terhadap Kemampuan Berpikir Kritis Matematis Siswa SMP 23,56 %. Penelitian ini dapat menjadi rujukan bagi pendidik, atau penentu kebijakan pada bidang pendidikan agar memberikan perhatian lebih terhadap ranah afektif dalam hal ini yaitu self-efficacy ketika melakukan kegiatan pembelajaran matematika, agar dapat meningkatkan pencapaian hasil pembelajaran matematika yang lebih optimal.

This study aims to analyze the effect of self-efficacy on the critical thinking skills of junior high school students. This research uses a quantitative study with a descriptive-correlational method. The population of this study was all students of class VIII Junior High School in Bandung. The sample in the study was chosen as many as 60 students. The data obtained are the results of the mathematical critical thinking skills test instrument and self-efficacy statement instruments through the google form media. The results of this study indicate the great influence of self-efficacy on the dimension of magnitude on the mathematical critical thinking skills of students of Junior High School in Bandung is 11.70%. The magnitude of the influence of self-efficacy on the dimensions of strength on the mathematical critical thinking skills of students of Junior High School in Bandung is 5.05%. The magnitude of the influence of self-efficacy on the dimensions of generality on the mathematical critical thinking skills of students of Junior High School in Bandung is 6.81%. Overall, the influence of Self-Efficacy on Students' Mathematical Thinking Ability at Junior High School in Bandung is 23.56%. This research can be a reference for educators or policymakers in the field of education to pay more attention to the affective domain, in this case self-efficacy when carrying out mathematics learning activities, to increase the achievement of more optimal mathematics learning outcomes.
