- Abstract
Reasoning ability is a necessary and important ability for students of mathematics education. This ability is required to construct a mathematical thought and provide evidence that the idea is true. Therefore, instruments for measuring mathematical reasoning abilities are very important. The focus of this research was to analyze the instrument for evaluating mathematical reasoning abilities based on the outcomes of the mathematical reasoning ability tests of students of the Mathematics Education Study program in the subject of Initial Value Problems and Boundary Conditions. The goal of this study was to analyze the instrument for assessing mathematical reasoning abilities. This research is quantitative research. Data were analyzed using the Winstep 5.2.3.0 application to obtain Rasch Model Analysis (RMA) item fit and polarity based on PTMEA CORR, misfit items, item and person separation and reliability, and a person-item map. The findings demonstrated that the instrument for evaluating students' mathematical reasoning skills was valid and reliable because the items matched the criteria for measurement. Therefore, it can be said that the test can be used to evaluate pupils' aptitude for mathematical reasoning.
