This research employed a qualitative descriptive approach involving 27 seventh-grade students at UPTD SMP Negeri 1 Aek Kuasan, consisting of 16 male students and 11 female students . Data were collected through tests, questionnaires, observations, interviews, and documentation. The results showed that students' emotional regulation was categorized into high, medium, and low levels. Most students were in the medium category (40.7%), followed by high (29.6%) and low (29.6%) categories . Based on gender, female students tended to have better emotional regulation than male students, as indicated by a higher percentage in the high category.
