research use quantitatif asosiatif approach. The method of this research use path analysis survey.
In this research there are 95 students from 4 schools that chosen by multistage random sampling
technique. Data collection with test and questionairre. The results of the research show that there
are positive direct effect of self regulation towards mathematics problem solving ability with score

with score 0.384, and there are positive direct effect of self regulation toward mathematics attitude
with score 0.324.The conclusion of this research are : (1) self regulation give direct positive effect
towards mathematic problem solving ability, (2) mathematics attitude give positive direct effect
towards mathematics problem solving ability, (3) self regulation give positive direct effect towards
