Abstract:

This study aims to analyze the effect of Civic Education learning on Adversity Quotient (AQ) in students. Citizenship Education is one of the efforts to build a national character that has moral and national values. Adversity Quotient itself is an individual's ability to face, overcome, and adapt to difficulties and challenges in life. This study employed a quantitative approach, utilizing a survey method by distributing questionnaires to 12th-grade students as respondents. The sample of this study consisted of 12th-grade high school students from SMAN 6 in South Tangerang City who had attended Civics Education lessons. The data were analysed using the linear regression technique to see the relationship between Civic Education learning variables and AQ. The results showed a positive and significant influence of Civic Education learning on the improvement of AQ in students. Specifically, the results of the independent sample test indicate that Ho and H1 are accepted, as evidenced by the calculation of Sig. (2-tailed) 183. So, 183 < 0.05 means that there is a significant effect of civic education learning on the adversity quotient in students. As can be seen in the results of the graph for the Climber criteria (very good), there are 14 students; for the Camper criteria (good), there are 18 students; for the Quiter criteria (sufficient), there are three students. This implies that improving the quality of Civic Education learning can be an effective strategy in strengthening students' AQ so that they are better prepared to face various challenges in the future.
