Abstract

In science learning, students need to be trained to develop Science Process Skills (SPS). This main objective is to analyze the profile of junior high school students’ SPS on substance pressure material. This research is a pre-experimental research. The sample of this research was 100 students of class VIII junior high school, first year. The SPS Test Instrument (SPSTI) to determine the profile of junior high school students’ SPS on material pressure of substances. SPSTI consists of eight indicators: Formulating the problem; Formulate a hypotheses; Identifying experimental variables; Defines the operational definition of the experimental variable; Designing experimental procedures; Creating graph; Data analysis; Formulating conclusions. This instrument has been declared valid and reliable by the three experts. In case of this research, the profile of junior high school students’ SPS on substances pressure material in general still at a low level. The implication of this research can be used as empirical evidence that junior high school students’ SPS on substance pressure material still needs to be improved.
