Abstract

This study aims to understand the relationship between the use of financial literacy in Social Science (IPS) learning and the level of economic awareness of students at SMP Negeri 5 Padangsidimpuan. The method used in this study is quantitative with a quasi-experimental design involving 31 students as participants. Data collection was carried out through questionnaires and analyzed by validity tests, descriptive statistics, and Pearson correlation analysis. The research findings show that most of the items on both variables are considered valid and feasible for use in information collection. Descriptive analysis indicates that both variables are relatively high, as can be seen from the average responses of students who are in the agree to strongly agree category and the fairly uniform distribution of data. In addition, the results of Pearson's correlation analysis showed a very strong and significant positive relationship between the two variables, with a correlation coefficient value of 1. 000 and significance value 0. 000. The implications of this research indicate that the integration of financial literacy into Social Science (IPS) learning can play an important role in improving students’ economic awareness.
