CRITICAL THINKING ABILITY IN SOLVING INTEGRAL CALCULUS PROBLEM BASED ON ADVERSITY QUOTIENT (AQ) OF STUDENTS OF MATHEMATICS EDUCATION IN UNIVERSITAS NEGERI MAKASSAR

This research is a mix method research with quantitative and qualitative approaches which aims at describing the critical thinking process of students of mathematics education in solving integral calculus problems based on Adversity Quotient (AQ). The research subjects were the students of Mathematics Education Program Study consisted of: 2 students with climber type, 2 students with camper type, and 2 students with quitters type. The research instruments were the researcher herself as the main instrument and the supporting instruments, namely Adversity Quotient quetionnaire, Mathematics problem solving test, and interview guidance. Data were collected by conducting analysis of the results of questionnaire, test, and interview. There is positive correlation between AQ and critical thinking ability of students of Mathematics Education with Pvalue (2-tailed) = 0.042
