The test equipment used in this study using simple linear regression, t test, and to determine the magnitude of the influence of variables using the coefficient of determination. In test the validity of the overall statement items between competence variables and performance variables declared valid because the value obtained rhitung> rtabel (0.270). Results of simple linear regression obtained value Y = 21.748 + 0.160X. From the test results partially or t test obtained tcount (1.096) 0.05 means competence variable is not significant to the performance variable. And the value of coefficient of determination R2 equal to 0.023 or 2.3%, it means Influence or contribution given by competence variable to performance variable equal to 2.3% while the rest equal to 97.7% influenced by other factor not examined in this research.
