Abstract

The results of previous research have not revealed the factors that influence mechanical reasoning, as a preparatory step to improve the mechanical reasoning abilities of engineering students. Based on this, the purpose of this study is to determine a factor model of engineering-related attitude and interest in learning in influencing mechanical reasoning. This study used a cross-sectional study design. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling, involving 30 mechanical engineering students and 72 civil engineering students from the Faculty of Engineering at Universitas Islam Ogan Komering Ilir Kayuagung. The study was conducted using a questionnaire with four Likert-type scale options. The questionnaire consisting of 13 items on mechanical reasoning, 8 items on engineering-related attitudes, and 8 items on interest in learning. The research data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) using the SmartPLS4 application. SEM analysis involves two stages: measurement model testing and structural model evaluation. Overall, the results of the PLS-SEM model evaluation show that all indicators have met convergent validity and reliability, the independent variables do not experience multicollinearity, 42.1% of the variation in the mechanical reasoning variable can be explained by the relationship between the indicators that form the construct, and both engineering-related attitudes and learning interests are important and significant factors in influencing mechanical reasoning ability. This study contributes to the existing literature in mechanical reasoning by providing an empirically validated structural model that clarifies the significant roles of engineering-related attitudes and learning interest in explaining variations in students’ mechanical reasoning ability.

Abstract

The urgency of this research is a follow-up to previous research that identified moderate engineering aptitude among engineering students at Universitas Islam Ogan Komering Ilir Kayuagung. Therefore, further analysis of the factors influencing engineering aptitudes is necessary. The results of this research will have implications for curriculum development, instructional design, and learning environments that can support engineering aptitude in engineering students and ensure success in the workforce. This study aims to determine a model of factors influencing engineering aptitude in engineering students.  This research is a quantitative cross-sectional study. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling, involving 30 mechanical engineering students and  72  civil engineering students from the Faculty of Engineering at Universitas Islam Ogan Komering Ilir Kayuagung. The data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). The SEM analysis included testing the measurement model and evaluating the structural model. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that engineering students' engineering aptitude is influenced by problem-solving and mechanical reasoning. Therefore, the study emphasizes the crucial role of mechanical reasoning and problem-solving processes in developing engineering aptitude among students. From a practical perspective, the findings suggest that engineering education should provide learning environments that actively encourage reasoning skills and real-world problem-solving experiences.
