The population of this study were fifth semester (5) students in classes A, B, and C who took the Islamic Education Psychology course, with a total of 64 students as respondents. Data collection techniques were carried out through learning outcome tests and documentation. Data analysis used hypothesis testing using the chi-square formula. The results of the study indicate that there is no significant effect or only a low effect on student learning outcomes in the Islamic Education Psychology course. This was proven by the results of hypothesis testing using the chi-square formula, which obtained a calculated chi-square of 2.0584, which was smaller than the table chi-square of 16.919 with a significance level of 5%. Therefore, in the research conducted by the researcher, the alternative hypothesis (Ha) was rejected and the null hypothesis (Ho) was accepted. Based on the results of the calculation of the coefficient of determination, it shows that independent assignments contribute 20.32% to student learning outcomes...
