The population in this study were all students of class VIII UPTD SMP Negeri 4 Parepare which consisted of 5 classes. The sample chosen used the Cluster Random Sampling technique to obtain a sample of class VIII.5 which had a total of 35 students. Research data was obtained using a questionnaire sheet.
