Abstract:The results of the TIMSS survey, PISA, and the facts show that students' mathematical problem solving abilities are still low. This means that students have difficulty working on math problems, especially problem solving problems. Adversity Quotient (AQ) has an important role for students in solving learning problems. There are 3 AQs namely quitters, campers, and climbers. This study attempts to describe the profile of students' mathematical problem solving based on Polya's steps in terms of quitters, campers, and climbers. The result shows that quitters students cannot carry out the four steps of Polya problem solving well, namely understanding the problem, making problem planning, carrying out problem planning, and re-examining the process and results of the settlement. Campers students are not able to re-examine the results and processes that have been written. While climbers students can carry out all four steps in solving the intended Polya problem. Abstrak:Hasil survey TIMSS, PISA, dan fakta dilapangan menunjukkan kemampuan pemecahan masalah matematika siswa masih rendah. Artinya siswa mengalami kesulitan dalam mengerjakan soal matematika, khususnya soal pemecahan masalah. Adversity Quotient (AQ) memiliki peranan penting bagi siswa dalam memecahkan masalah belajar. Ada 3 AQ yaitu quitters, campers, dan climbers. Penelitian ini mencoba mendeskripsikan profil pemecahan masalah matematika siswa berdasarkan langkah-langkah Polya ditinjau dari quitters, campers, dan climbers.

Problem solving ability is one of the mathematical abilities that need to be mastered by students to equip students in logical, analytical, systematic thinking and the ability to work well together. In addition, this problem solving ability is very important for students to train students in solving problems in everyday life. This study aims to analyze student errors in solving mathematical problem solving problems based on Newman's theory. The type of research used is descriptive qualitative. The subjects of this study were students of class VII-A SMP Muhammadiyah 1 Menggala. Data collection used in the form of tests, interviews and documentation. The results showed that the most mistakes made by students were in writing the final answer, which was caused because students did not understand the commands in the questions well. The second most common error is the transformation error caused because students do not have the skills to change the language of the problem into a mathematical model. The third error, namely misunderstanding the problem caused by students not being careful in writing down the information in the problem, and not getting used to writing down the information in the problem when solving math problems. The fourth error, namely the error of process skills caused by students not being careful in carrying out the calculation process

This research seeks to explore and reveal students' mathematical problem solving abilities by analyzing student answers. The research subjects were seventh grade students taken from a public junior high school in Purwakarta Regency. The results of the study show that students' mathematical problem solving ability is still very weak and far to be complete even though the level of difficulty of the instrument is in the medium category. In general, the ability of these study subjects in mathematical problem solving is still below 50%. It is time for teachers to apply problem-based learning, in addition to conventional learning models, to provide opportunities and experiences for students to see and experience mathematical problem solving in the classroom. This qualitative study exposes students' responses in dealing with story questions in a rectangular building material. In addition the students are given the questions shown to reveal whether the students are using a systematic solution or can answer directly without a sequence, judging by the ability to solve mathematical problems. There were 6 heterogeneous students who were the subjects in this study. Based on the analysis that has been done, the results obtained are (1) students answer the problem is not systematic, (2) lack of understanding of the sequence of problem solving, (3) students are too hasty in doing math problems.
