Abstract

Seven highly mathematically able students from Papua regions were selected to get an extension program for a mathematics olympiad preparation class in Surya Institute. Tes Inteligensi Kolektif Indonesia or TIKI (Collective Intelligence Test of Indonesia) were used to determine those who had an IQ greater than 120 (which is equivalent to the Wechsler norm) with some very high level of mathematical abilities. Teachers rating scale based on Krutetskii predictive behaviors of mathematical ability were used to describe the students profile. Of the 8 mathematical ability predictive behaviors proposed by Krutetskii, the highly mathematically able Papua students demonstrate all of the cognitive characteristics except the ability to be flexible in solving problems and to reverse the steps of mental processes. Cognitive aspects underlying mathematical ability predictive behaviors of the highly mathematically able Papua students will be the focus of this study.
