Abstract

This research aims to obtain information regarding the impact of mathematical reasoning skill and mathematical critical thinking skill on mathematical literacy skill. The research questions were: 1) Is there any impact of mathematical reasoning skill on mathematical literacy skill, 2) Is there any impact of mathematical critical thinking skill on mathematical literacy skill, 3) Is there any impact of mathematical reasoning skill and mathematical critical thinking skill on mathematical literacy skill. This research used quantitative approach with survey method and correlational technique. Mathematical literacy skill (Y) was a dependent variable, while mathematical reasoning skill (X1) and mathematical critical thinking skill (X2) were independent variables. The sample of this research was comprised of 51 students who took integral calculus course in Department of Mathematics and Mathematics Education, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, in Universitas Negeri Jakarta, which were collected randomly using simple random sampling. The statistical analysis used in this research was multiple regression analysis by first conducting prerequisite tests, namely normality test, homogeneity test, autocorrelation test, and multicollinearity test. The results of this research showed that: 1) There was a positive impact of mathematical reasoning skill on mathematical literacy skill, 2) There was a positive impact of mathematical critical thinking skill on mathematical literacy skill, 3) There was an impact of mathematical reasoning skill and mathematical critical thinking skill together on mathematical literacy skill
