Abstract

Notwithstanding that many efforts to overcome environmental problems have been carried out by several parties, yet the issues still occur. Improving students’ responsible environmental behavior (REB) can be an alternative to solve environmental problems. This study aimed to analyze the relation between the both variables (i.e. naturalist intelligence and personality) and students’ REB at SJHS 51 of Bandung. The research was carried out using quantitative descriptive method through a correlational approach. Naturalist intelligence, personality, and REB data were collected using questionnaires. The research data were analyzed using multiple linear regression at α = 0.05. The research results showed that there was a relation between: (1) naturalist intelligence and REB;. (2) personality and REB; and (3) the both predictor variables and REB. Therefore, empowering the both competencies (naturalist intelligence and personality) is the essential step to improve students’ REB.

Abstract

Intention to act and environmental issues knowledge has been assumed as the two variables which affect people’s environmental behavior. This study aimed at determining the correlations between variables (i.e. intention to act, environmental issues knowledge, and environmental behavior) on biology teachers in State High Schools of Pandeglang Regency. This survey research used quantitative approach. The sample was 51 teachers chosen using simple random sampling.  Meanwhile, the population was 61 teachers in State High Schools of Pandeglang Regency. The data gained were analyzed using path analysis. The results showed that environmental knowledge gives direct impact on environmental behavior with coefficient value was 0.472. The same phenomena were also occurred in the intention to act towards the teachers’ environmental behavior (0.508). In addition, the intention to act was directly influenced by environmental knowledge (0.364), while the environmental behavior was indirectly affected by environmental knowledge (0.185). Thus, the findings of this study can be basic information to determine the most proper strategy to cultivate a good environmental behavior.

Abstract

Scientific literacy and critical thinking skill are the considerable 21st century competencies must be owned by nowadays students. This study aimed at determining the correlation among three variables i.e. critical thinking skill, motivation, and scientific literacy possessed by high school students. The research used a quantitative approach to explore the correlation among variables observed. The total sample were 124 of X MIPA graders selected using the simple random sampling technique. The data collection was carried out by providing test instruments to measure students’ critical thinking skill, motivation, and scientific literacy. The all variables then were analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results showed that (1) there was a positive correlation between the critical thinking skill and scientific literacy (11.83%), (2) there was no significant correlation between motivation and scientific literacy, and (3) the both predictors (i.e. critical thinking skill and motivation) were able to predict the criterion (scientific literacy) (22.56%). It is suggested to optimize students’ critical thinking skill and motivation to sharpen students’ scientific literacy.
