Abstract

Ketekunan akademik sangat diperlukan bagi mahasiswa agar dapat menyelesaikan pendidikan di perguruan tingggi dengan baik. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui korelasi dukungan komunitas belajar terhadap ketekunan akademik pada mahasiswa. Responden dalam penelitian ini adalah mahasiswa fakultas psikologi universitas X berjumlah (n) = 214 yang terdiri dari 47 laki-laki dan 167 perempuan, dengan teknik sampling menggunakan cluster random sampling. Pengumpulan data menggunakan skala dukungan sosial dengan realiabilitas alpha cronbach 0,957 dan skala ketekunan akademik dengan reliabilitas alpha cronbach 0,865. Hasil analisa data menggunakan uji korelasi product moment pearson diperoleh koefisien korelasi rxy = 0,565 dengan signifikansi (p)=0,000 (p<0,001). Hasil ini membuktikan bahwa dukungan sosial komunitas belajar berkorelasi positif dengan ketekunan akademik. Implikasi dari penelitian ini bahwa mahasiswa perlu memiliki kelompok belajar yang dapat memberi dukungan secara akademik maupun non akademik.
