Abstract

This study aims to examine the relationship between learning readiness and the scientific reasoning ability of Grade V students in public elementary schools in Laweyan District. The research problem is based on the fact that the scientific reasoning ability and learning readiness of elementary school-aged students are still underdeveloped. This research employed a quantitative method with a correlational design. The population of this study were all fifth-grade elementary school students in the Laweyan district, with a sample of 100 students taken by cluster random sampling. Data were collected using two techniques, namely a questionnaire to collect data on learning readiness and a written test to assess scientific reasoning ability. The data were analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis with the results of the coefficient value of 0.816, p < 0.001, and an R-square of 0.665. These results indicate a significant relationship between learning readiness and scientific reasoning ability. This finding implies that teachers can use the research results as a reference to develop learning strategies that not only focus on students' cognitive abilities but also focus on factors that influence scientific reasoning, one of which is learning readiness. Therefore, the cultivation of these abilities becomes more effective.
