COGNITIVE MODELING EFFECT: ENHANCING STUDENT SELF DISCIPLINE THROUGH SELF INSTRUCTIONAL TRAINING

Self-discipline as one of the non-academic factors that contribute to determining academic's achievement. One of efforts to establish the student's self-discipline is through group counselling. Counselling groups that are used Cognitive Modelling Self-Instructional Training towards self-discipline students. This research used quasiexperiment design with Nonrandomized Pre-Test Post-Test Control Group Design Experiment. The subjects of this study were 16 students of Grade VIII of State Junior High School Ploso Jombang with low self-discipline then divided into two groups of experimental group and control group. The experimental group was given Cognitive Modelling with Self-Instructional Training, whereas for the control group was given conventional method. The collected data used the Self Discipline Scale which has been tested using the construct validity as well as the reliability test. Data were analyzed through the Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA). The results of study that there was an effect of cognitive Modelling Self-Instructional Training towards student's selfdiscipline at the experimental group was higher than in the control group. It was indicated by an increase of self-discipline scale score before and after treatment. So that the giving of the treatment used Cognitive Modelling Self-Instructional Training effects on the increasing student's self-discipline at junior high school.
