ABSTRACT

Social interaction in elementary school students is one thing that must be considered. This is important considering that in learning in elementary schools there are still many learning systems that use a play approach. This study aims to see the impact of children's passive basic movement activities and reduce mastering basic movements as a provision for socializing in social life. The sample used in this study involved elementary school students in Medan City using a Purposive Sample with a total sample of 66 students by dividing into two groups with each group receiving a different treatment, group A 33 students, and group B 33 students. This study used randomized posttest-only control group designs. The instrument is a social interaction questionnaire (validity of 0.700 & reliability is 0.915). Data analysis is carried out in several stages, namely descriptive analysis, difference testing, and hypothesis testing. The results in this study show the value of t-_count3,545 with Sig, 0,002<0,05 so H_o rejected and value t-_count2,011 with value Sig. 0,225>0,05 H_o accepted. The conclusions of this study explain that there is an influence of basic motion activities on the development of social processes (associative) in elementary school students, but no influence of basic motion activities on the development of social processes (dissociative) in elementary school students. This research contributes to the need to continue in the form of developing basic movement activities to improve social interaction and other aspects.
