Abstract

The dual process theory is a theory that discusses human thought processes and decision making. In decision making, the process can be done quickly or slowly. System 1 is identical to a fast process (intuition) while System 2 is identical to a slow (analytical) process. The purpose of this study is to categorize the types of thinking and describe the types of thinking of students in solving reflection cognitive test problems. The approach used in this study is a qualitative approach, and the instrument used is a three problem in cognitive reflection test (CRT). The results showed that students tend to use System 1 more than System 2. Searching students 'thought processes shows that there are four categories of students' thinking types, namely 1) incomplete thinking type, 2) non-verify thinking type, 3 ) complete thinking types, 4) thinking types with verification. Types of thinking incomplete and without verification are categorized in students who think using System 1 (intuition), whereas types of thinking complete and with verification are categorized in students who think using System 2 (analytic). © IJSTR 2020.
