Abstract

Measurement is the process of assigning a number to something based on certain rules. Through measurement, the value of a quantity will be obtained. There are two types of measurement, physical measurement and mental measurement. Mental measurement is done by giving quantitative values to the human mind. This method is a major step in the formation of mathematical concepts, where, in mathematics, a person^s logic of thinking is implanted in order to reason well. However, sometimes math gets really scary, because it is too difficult. Based on these assumptions, it is necessary to study the results of mental measurements through mathematical tests. The purpose of this study was to analyze the results of mental measurements using the Donlon and Fischer method. This study used an experimental method on 700 students. The results showed that the Donlon and Fischer method was the right method for detecting abnormal mental measurement results. The next conclusion, the impropriety of mental measurement results through mathematical tests can occur in the correct score model. Research implementation, Donlon and Fischer methods can be used to analyze the results of mental measurements through the difficulty level of items on the delta scale as the basis for calculations.
