The Effect of Achievement Motivation to student???s Learning Activities
Abstract
This study aims to examine the effect of achievement motivation on students??? learning activities in Akidah Akhlak instruction. The research employed a quantitative approach using correlational ex post facto design. The population consisted of all Grade VIII students at MTs Swasta Al-Falah in the 2024/2025 academic year, totaling 100 students, of whom 90 were included as research respondents using a total sampling technique after instrument testing. Data were collected through structured Likert-scale questionnaires measuring achievement motivation and learning activities and were analyzed using descriptive statistics and simple linear regression. The results indicate that students??? achievement motivation and learning activities are both categorized as high, and regression analysis shows that achievement motivation has a positive and statistically significant effect on learning activities. These findings imply that strengthening students??? achievement motivation can support more active engagement in Akidah Akhlak learning. The study contributes to understanding motivational factors in Islamic moral education and suggests that instructional strategies should integrate motivational and value-based approaches to enhance meaningful learning.
