The purpose of this article is to understand the basic neuroanatomy of the brain and the neurodevelopmental characteristics of children with autism spectrum disorders. Children with autism spectrum disorders are children with complex developmental disorders, based on a neuropsychological approach, a disorder experienced by a child with autism due to abnormalities in the structure and biochemistry of the brain, as well as the interference in integrating sensory information received by the environment. Disturbances in the sensory process include how to obtain sensory information (sensory procesing), how to process the information (sensory procesing), and how to move the muscles and perform a series of movements in response to sensory stimuli received.
This study aimed to look at the profile picture of hardiness in mothers of children with autism in the city of Medan. A total of 58 mothers were included in this study. Sampling was done by purposive sampling. The method was used to descriptive quantitative method. Data were taken using a measuring instrument such as Hardiness scale (Dispositional Resilience Scale/DRS-15). Processing and analysis of statistical data was descriptive, meaning that findings such as demographic data, aspects of hardiness and other additional data will be analyzed in the form of a minimum score, maximum score, mean and standard deviation, in order to illustrate the hardiness profile comprehensively. The results showed that the picture of the strength of the mothers of children with autism in average level. Judging from the hardiness, found that aspects of the commitments had the highest mean score, followed by the control aspect and the aspect of the challenge.
Keywords: children with autism; mother; hardinessAbstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat gambaran profil ketangguhan pada ibu yang memiliki anak autis di kota Medan. Sebanyak 58 ibu-ibu dilibatkan dalam penelitian ini. Pengambilan sampel dilakukan dengan purposive sampling. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode kuantitatif deskriptif. Data diambil dengan menggunakan alat ukur berupa skala Ketangguhan (Dispositional Resilience Scale/DRS-15). Cara pengolahan dan analisa data statistik bersifat deskriptif, artinya temuan seperti data demografi, aspek ketangguhan dan data tambahan lainnya akan dianalisa berupa skor minimum, skor maksimum, mean dan standar deviasi, agar dapat menggambarkan profil ketangguhan secara komprehensif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa gambaran ketangguhan pada ibu yang memiliki anak autis berada dalam kategori sedang. Ditinjau dari aspek ketangguhan yang dikemukakan oleh Maddi & Kobasha (1980), ditemukan bahwa aspek komitmen memiliki nilai mean tertinggi, kemudian diikuti dengan aspek kontrol dan aspek tantangan. Implikasi penelitian ini sebagai data awal untuk melihat gambaran profil ketangguhan ibu dalam mengasuh anak autis di kota Medan.

This study aims to determine learning independence which is influenced by the learning motivation of new students. A total of 460 new students of class 2019 were involved in this research. The instrument used was a scale of self-regulated learning and a scale of learning motivation. The data analysis used is the assumption test, hypothesis test, and difference test. The results show 1) based on the assumption test that the research data is proven normality and linearity; 2) based on the hypothesis test that there is a positive relationship between learning motivation and self-regulated learning (r = 0.770; p <0.01), and there is an effect of learning motivation on self-regulated learning (R² = 0.592; p <0.01); 3) based on different tests that there are differences in self-regulated learning based on student demographic factors [F = 1.321, p <0.05].Learning Motivation
