Purpose of the study: The concept of student fraction, in general, is to understand a small part of an intact part so that students' understanding of fractions as quantities needs to be considered in the context of quantitative reasoning. This study aimed to explore and describe the reasoning of junior high school students in Bima, Indonesia, in understanding the relationship of quantities as a fraction. Methodology: Research was conducted with qualitative research, which was descriptive exploratory with the stages of giving the Fraction Problem Task (FPT) and task-based interviews. The subjects in this study were 4 students selected from grades 8 and grade 9, who had studied fraction material and were chosen based on the categorization shown by students on the answer sheet. Main Findings: The results of this study described that there were two forms of student reasoning approaches, namely the variable and the non-variable approach. In the variable approach, students used multilevel variables, namely level one and level two, whereas, in a non-variable approach, students connected quantities directly, without involving variables. Applications of this study: The process of connecting quantities involved quantitative reasoning with different quantitative operations, such as the quantity combination in the form of multiplication, addition, and concurrent combination of multiplication and addition. Novelty/Originality of this study: In the process of linking quantities, students were connecting composite units with intact units directly, and students were connecting composite units, continuous units, and then connecting to intact units.

Identifying and correcting the mistake that students make about science concept is very important. The main purpose of this article is to analyse some publications about common science misconceptions in some science topics in junior high schools. Misconceptions are erroneous perceptions of what is universally accepted. The misconception identification in this research is based on the descriptive research using some journal publications in Indonesia university which is held science education study program. Study found that : the concept of photosynthesis,  respirations, the relationship of photosynthesis and respirations, force (action and reaction forces) , and Newton laws are most frequently investigated as misconceptions of science. Students’ interest and learning environments are some reasons of students’ misconceptions.

Abstract This study aims to determine the relationship between education on the value of healthy living through halal food materials and thaybah in a multicultural Islamic perspective, with healthy living behavior of junior high school students. Based on purposive random sampling, the sample was 50 (21%) from a population of 237 students. The questionnaire used to collect data consisted of a questionnaire with a variable x and a questionnaire with a variable y. Supporting data were obtained through observation and interviews with respondents, namely teachers and several students. Data were analyzed through correlation hypothesis testing with bivariate correlation coefficient technique, namely product moment using SPSS. The results show; There is a close relationship of 0.76 between the two variables. The results of this study answer the contradiction between the two views. One side supports, the other side opposes the theory of the relationship between education, the value of clean and healthy life, a multicultural Islamic perspective on the formation of students' clean and healthy living behavior. The results of this study led to a major change in the views of education actors so as to encourage teachers to be more serious and concentrate on implementing healthy life value education.

This study aims to determine the relationship of junior high school students’ spatial and mathematical logical intelligence based on understanding the concepts. Spatial intelligence indicators in this study are reviewed from students’ abilities in using images as a tool for solving problems, connecting data with concepts that have been held, and finding patterns in solving problems. On the other hand, the indicators of students’ mathematical logical intelligence is observed by looking at students' abilities to mention and understand information that is known in a problem, to draw up a plan of completion and to do mathematical calculations correctly. The indicators of understanding concepts are restating a concept, providing examples and non-examples of concepts, and applying concepts or algorithms in problem solving. The research method in this research is the Ex Post Facto correlational type, with using a purposive sampling as the sampling technique. The results of the data analysis obtained a correlation coefficient is around 0.93 with 86% R square. The relationship between the spatial intelligence variables is shown by the understanding of concepts by 86%, the level of the relationship, with the correlation coefficient is 0.93, where mathematical logical intelligence with an understanding of 80%, with the level of the relationship of 0.89, and the relationship of spatial intelligence with a mathematical logical is described by a 77% level of the relationship, with 0.88, as the correlation coefficient. The results showed that there was a very strong relationship between spatial intelligence and logical mathematics in terms of understanding students' concepts.

Different types of violence have been present in Mexico but there have been few studies that have analyzed their relationship with mental health in adolescents, especially in cities with high rates of social violence. It is important to compare different violence types and their relationship with mental health since not all relationships are the same. It appears that social violence has a stronger relationship with mental health, and for this reason it receives more attention, but other types of violence have a stronger relationship and do not receive as much attention. Chihuahua has been one of the most violent states in Mexico, and Juarez has been the most violent city in the world in 2009 and 2010. The purpose of the study is to compare the relationship of different types of violence (social, cyberbullying, partner violence, and child abuse and neglect) with mental health indicators (depression, anxiety, stress, self-esteem, and paranoid thoughts). There were 526 high school students, from the cities of Juarez ( n = 282) and Chihuahua ( n = 244). The mean age was 16.5 ( SD = 1.4) years and 50.6% reported being males. The relationships among the variables were analyzed using Pearson’s correlations and multiple linear regressions. Both cities that have experienced social violence like carjacking, kidnapping, and sexual assault, but they have very small or no relationships with mental health indicators. Other types of violence have stronger correlations. Our findings suggest that interventions should not focus only in preventing and dealing with social violence, but that other types of violence must also be addressed in adolescents.
