Eka Setiana. (2026). Analysis of Learning Difficulties among Students at SMP Negeri 14 Takengon. [Undergraduate Thesis. Syiah Kuala University]. Under the supervision of Drs. Abu Bakar, M.Si. and Nurbaity, S.Pd., M.Ed. Learning difficulties remain one of the most common problems experienced by students during the learning process and may adversely affect their academic achievement as well as their psychological development. These difficulties are not only reflected in low academic performance but also involve obstacles in students' developmental, behavioral, and cognitive aspects, which may hinder their participation in the learning process. This study aimed to describe the level of learning difficulties among students at SMP Negeri 14 Takengon. This research employed a descriptive quantitative approach. The population consisted of students at SMP Negeri 14 Takengon, with a sample of 102 students selected using simple random sampling. Data were collected using a Learning Difficulties Scale developed based on developmental, behavioral, and cognitive aspects. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistical analysis. The findings revealed that the overall level of students' learning difficulties was categorized as moderate, with a percentage of 64%. In terms of developmental, behavioral, and cognitive aspects, most students were also classified in the moderate category. Furthermore, differences in learning difficulties were found based on gender and grade level, with male students tending to experience higher levels of learning difficulties than female students. It can therefore be concluded that the learning difficulties of students at SMP Negeri 14 Takengon are generally at a moderate level. Therefore, appropriate attention, guidance, and counseling services are needed to assist students in overcoming learning barriers and optimizing their learning development.
