Abstract

This research is a quantitative research. This study aims to see the relationship of parents' attention with the interest of students in the students of class XI SMKS Budhi Darma. Subjects in this study were students of class XI which amounted to 240 students. The sampling technique used cluster random sampling technique. The data were collected using two scales, namely the scale of parents attention and the student's interest in learning. Data analysis using correlation technique (rxy) equal to 0,533 with p = 0,000 <0,05, meaning there is positive and significant correlation between parent attention with interest of student of class XI, which shows that the higher attention of parent hence the higher student interest . Conversely, the lower the attention of parents, the lower the student's interest in learning. The parents' concern in this study is that students of SMKS Budhi Darma are high because (mean empirical = 85.55.> Hypothetical mean = 78.5 where the difference exceeds SD number = 5,134). And student learning interest is also high, because (mean empirical = 67.05> hypothetical mean = 62.5 where the difference exceeds SD number = 4.670). The coefficient of determination of the correlation of r2 = 0.284 means the attention of parents to give an effective contribution to student learning interest of 28.4%. From the results of this study, the proposed hypothesis is accepted.
