<p><strong>Abstract:</strong> Studies about neuroscience reported that women and men have differences in some parts of their brain. Women and men have different ways to encrypt memories, solve problems, and make decisions. This study aimed to explore and raise gender differences in scientific argumentation. There were 80 students (40 female and 40 male students) selected by random sampling technique from two schools in Malang. Each student was given eight essays about Newton’s Law as the instrument of scientific argumentation. To analyze the data, the kruskal-wallis test was conduced (P&lt;0.05 was considered a significant difference). The result showed that (1) There was significant difference between male and female students’ scientific argumentation; (2) Female students’ were better at prividing claim, evidence, and reasoning in scientific argumentation than male students’; (3) Students’ scientific argumentation were insufficient category, claim, evidence, and reasoning in level one. These findings could be used as consideration in the next study especially about learnings to improve students’ scientific argumentation.</p><strong>Abstrak:</strong><em> </em>Penelitian tentang <em>neuroscience </em>mengungkapkan bahwa laki-laki dan perempuan memiliki perbedaan di beberapa bagian otak mereka.

This study aims to analyze the mathematical disposition and self-regulated learning of online lectures with the help of Google Classroom. This type of research is descriptive quantitative. This study's subjects were 34 students of the first semester of the Mathematics Education Study Program consisting of 11 male students and 23 female students determined by the saturated sampling method. From the research results, it can be concluded that students' mathematical disposition through learning assisted by Google Classroom has high criteria. The mathematical disposition of male and female students through learning assisted by Google Classroom has high criteria. Still, the level of mathematical disposition of male students is slightly higher than female students. Meanwhile, student self-regulated learning with the help of Google Classroom obtains very high criteria. For male and female students, both have very high learning independence criteria in carrying out learning with the help of Google Classroom.Keywords: Mathematical Disposition, Self-regulated learning, Google Classroom, Online Lectures, Gender

Repetitive nonsuicidal self-injury (R-NSSI) is an extreme manifestation of nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) behavior that causes bodily harm and emotional and personality disorders. It is a growing concern, especially among adolescents; therefore, this study aims to provide empirical support for effective interventions on R-NSSI behavior among adolescents in China. We used data of about 1180 students from a survey conducted in seven middle schools in Xi’an, China, and applied multiple logistic regression to analyze NSSI and R-NSSI among male and female students, including their influencing factors. We found no significant difference between male and female students’ R-NSSI; however, regarding influencing factors, male students had more violent experiences and less social support than female students. Parental and familial factors played the most prominent role in social support. Social support was found to be a main-effect mechanism in the effect of violent experiences on R-NSSI among male students, whereas the mechanism had both a main effect and a certain buffer effect among female students. R-NSSI was found to be more prevalent among younger children, children with siblings, and those with romantic relationship experiences. We also found that healthy adolescent development involves the participation of families and schools. Health education should be conducted according to the students’ sex and characteristics.

The research subjects were 50 students (21 male and 29 female) who were taken by random sampling technique from two high schools in Malang. The research instrument was adapted from problem solving instruments of Maries & Singh (2018). The data was analyzed by statistic descriptive and Kruskall Wallis test (p-value <0.05). The results showed that overall, there was no significant difference between male and female students (p-value>0.05). However male students performed better than female students on preparing the action (p-value<0.05). The results of this research can be a consideration and input for practitioners of education to improve the quality of education, especially in Indonesia.

Ellis (1994) divides motivation into four types, namely instrumental motivation, integrative motivation, resultative motivation and intrinsic motivation. This study discusses the effects of integrative motivation on foreign speakers while studying Malay Language vocabulary. The main objective of the study was to identify the influence of integrative motivation on male and female students while studying Malay Language vocabulary in Universiti Tenaga Nasional (UNITEN). This study was conducted in order to seek the answer to the question of whether there was a significant difference in the influence of integrative motivation between male and female students. A questionnaire containing 10 items in the form of self-reporting statements concerning integrative motivation was used as an instrument of the study. The data from the questionnaires administered were analysed using SPSS software version 23 for descriptive data and inferences such as mean scores and percentages, and the results of the ANOVA test was analysed too. The results showed that there was a significant difference in the influence of integrative motivation between male and female students while studying  Malay Language vocabulary, where the significant value was less than 0.05 (p <0.05). The findings showed that the majority of the male students were influenced by integrative motivation while studying Malay Language vocabulary in UNITEN compared to the female students.

<p class="ABS-C">This study aimed to analyse the difference in the mathematical thinking abilities of Informatics Engineering students based on gender in Calculus problem-solving. Mathematical thinking ability was measured based on four indicators of the mathematical thinking process, namely specialisation, generalising, conjecturing, and convincing. The instruments in this study were mathematical thinking tests and observation sheets. The test used in this study was composed of four questions by indicators of the mathematical thinking process.  The technique of data collection was the test, observation, and interview. Subjects of this study consisted of 35 male students and 22 female students. Data were analysed using the t-test. The results of the analysis showed that there is a significant difference in the mathematical thinking ability of male and female students. Mathematical thinking abilities of female students reached indicators of specialisation, generalising, and conjecturing. On the other hand,  mathematical thinking abilities of male students passed the elements of speciality and generalising.</p>
