Abstract

The discipline of TPQ students is relatively low, as evidenced by
their behavior of disturbing their friends who are studying and their lack of focus,
which often becomes a challenge in the learning process at TPQ. This hinders the
effectiveness of learning. Objective: Evaluating the effectiveness of the economic
token program as a means of improving student discipline in learning. Method:
This study used a quasi-experimental design. The sample selected using purposive
sampling and divided into two groups: control (n=10) and experimental (n=10).
The intervention was carried out for 1 week, beginning with a pre-test and ending
with a post-test. Data analysis was performed using JASP software with a non
parametric Mann-Whitney U test. Results: The findings showed a statistically
significant difference in improvement scores between the experimental and
control groups (W = 100,000, p < 0.001). The final results determined that the
gain value of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group.
Conclusion: Student discipline can be improved through token economy
intervention and can be used as a classroom management strategy.
