This study systematically examines the results of research related to underchiver students. This study aims to identify several factors that are thought to be causes of underachiever student and solutions that can be used to provide appropriate support for students in the process of learning mathematics. The research method used is a systematic literature review with journal criteria, namely the data used is only related to the causative factors and solutions of underachiever students, and the journals used must be indexed by Scopus and Sinta. From the results of the literature study found 169 articles published in national and international journals. Of the 169 articles, 11 articles were selected that met the requirements for the analysis. The results of the analysis show that the causes of underachiever students are internal factors, namely the student's own personality and external factors that come from family and school, then the solutions offered in dealing with underachiever students include the application of fun learning with cognitive and behavioral strategies, psychoeducational interventions in the form of training and learning with approaches are accompanied by a well-prepared strategy for gifted students.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
