Abstract

The purpose of this study is to describe the intuition characteristics of junior high school students in solving mathematical problems viewed from mathematical abilities. This research based on qualitative descriptive study. The subjects of this study were taken from Lab School UNESA  Junior High School, which consisted of three students from class VIII A, namely one student with high, moderate,  and low mathematical ability. The method that used to collect data consists of the mathematical ability test,  problem solving test and so of the interview method. Data analysis uses the intuitive characteristic indicators at each stage of the problem solving. The conclusion of this study indicate that student with high mathematical ability at the stage of understanding the problem using affirmatory intuition with the characteristics of extrapolativeness, intrinsic certainty and perseverance, at the stage of making plans using anticipatory intuition with the characteristics of global ideas, and at the stage of carrying out plans and checking again not using intuition. Student with moderate mathematical ability at the stage of understanding the problem using affirmatory intuition with the characteristics of extrapolativeness, intrinsic certainty and perseverance, at the stage of making plans using anticipatory intuition with the characteristics of global ideas, and at the stage of carrying out plans and checking again not using intuition. Student with low mathematical ability at the stage of understanding the problem using affirmatory intuition with the characteristics of perseverance and coerciveness, at the stage of making plans using anticipatory intuition with the characteristics of global ideas, and at the stage of carrying out plans and checking again not using intuition.
