This study aims to analyze the levels of metacognition based on the framework of Swartz and Perkins (as developed by Laurens) and the statistical problem-solving abilities of fourth-semester students in the Early Childhood Education Program at FIPK IAKN Ambon. It employs a descriptive approach with both quantitative and qualitative data. The results show: (1) Metacognitive levels: (a) High scorers fall under Reflective and Semi-Reflective Use, demonstrating deep understanding and solution evaluation; (b) Medium scorers fall under Strategic and Semi-Strategic Use, capable of planning strategies but lacking in evaluation; (c) Low scorers fall under Tacit and Aware Use, only grasping basic problems. (2) Problem-solving performance: (a) Students at the Strategic Use level meet metacognitive indicators but only on certain questions; (b) Semi-Reflective Use students solve problems thoroughly and understand concepts; (c) Semi-Strategic Use students complete only part of the tasks; (d) Aware Use students struggle to understand the questions; (e) Tacit Use students tend to answer randomly.
