1 INTRODUCTION

A school as a formal educational institution serves to

provide students with knowledge, ability, and all

required skills for them to address future challenges.

Physical education in schools can become a means to

develop students’ potentials.

Educational processes in schools are divided into

intracurricular, cocurricular, and extracurricular

activities. Students’ interests and potentials are

developed in the extracurricular programs

(Kurniawan et al., 2010). A programmed

extracurricular activity can facilitate students to

utilize their spare time positively.

2 METHODS

A method is a way to discover truths objectively. The

truth is the objective, and the method is the way. A

method is used in order for the discovery to be

scientific (Remler and Van, 2010). This study

employed a descriptive method. According to

Arikunto (2007), a descriptive study is a study

intended to collect information about an existing

phenomenon. The use of descriptive method in this

study is to describe the contribution of basketball

extracurricular activities to students’ social behaviors

and physical fitness at SMA Negeri 9 Bandung.

The samples were selected using a purposive

sampling technique, which according to Sugiyono

(2012), is technique to select samples based on certain

consideration. The samples in this study were tenth

and eleventh graders who participated in in the

basketball extracurricular program based on the

following criteria:

 Only basketball extracurricular participants;

 Active participants of the basketball

extracurricular program;

 Tenth and eleventh graders;

 Having been basketball extracurricular

participants for at least one year.

The study was conducted based on the following

procedure:

 Determining the population and sample;

 Distributing questionnaires about

extracurricular participation and social

behavior;

 Measuring the samples’ physical fitness using

Indonesia Physical Fitness Test (TKJI);

 Data analysis;

 Conclusion.

Data collection requires instruments. The

instruments of this research were questionnaire and

test (Patrick et al., 2002).

Since this study had three variables, there were

three instruments in this study: one test and two

questionnaires. To measure extracurricular activities,

the researchers used Krathwohl’s parameters cited in

Suhendar (2011) including acceptance, response, and

assessment. To measure social behaviors, the

researchers used Crutchfield and Ballachey’s

parameters cited in Ibrahim (2001) including

collaboration, respect, honesty, fighting, feud, and

competition. To measure physical fitness, the

researchers used TKJI tests including a 50-meter

sprint, vertical jump, pull up, sit up, an 800-meter run,

and a 1000-meter run. An instrument needs a

measuring scale to generate accurate quantitative data

(Sugiyono, 2012).

The questionnaires in this study used the Likert

scale. According to Sugiyono (2012), the Likert scale

is used to measure attitudes, opinions, and

perceptions of an individual or a group of people

about social phenomena. These questionnaires had

five options including: strongly agree (SA), agree

(A), undecided (U), disagree (D) and strongly

disagree (SD).

The collected data were then analyzed using the

following procedure:

The collected data were then analyzed using the

following statistical formula:

a. To find the average of every variable, the

following formula was used:

X = Σx/n

(1)

Note:

X = average

Σx = total score

n = sample size

b. The following formula was used to calculate the

standard deviation.

3 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

3.1 Assessment Criteria for Research

Result

3.1.1 Basketball Extracurricular

Participation

The calculation resulted in the following mean,

standard deviation, minimum score, and maximum

score:

Every item in the basketball extracurricular

assessment has maximum score of five. There were

25 respondents, so the total of ideal score for this

variable was 7,625. The result of data analysis

revealed that the total score of basketball

extracurricular activities was 6,669. Thus, the

participation was 6,669/7,625 x 100% = 87%. This

percentage is in the category of very strong (Weiss

and Friedrichs, 1986).

As earlier mentioned, the basketball

extracurricular activities were measured using the

following subcomponents: (1) awareness, (2)

willingness to accept, (3) control to accept, (4)

accepting responses, (5) willingness to respond, (6)

satisfaction in responding, (7) accepting a value, and

(8) realizing about a value (Hoffman et al., 1996).

3.1.2 Social Behavior Level

The calculation resulted in the following mean,

standard deviation, minimum score, and maximum

score:

Every item in the social behavior assessment has

maximum score of five. There were 25 respondents,

so the total of ideal score for this variable was 5,500.

The result of data analysis revealed that the total score

of social behavior was 4,621. Thus, the percentage

was 4,621/5,500 x 100% = 84.01%. This indicates

that social behavior is in the category of very strong.

As earlier mentioned, the social behavior was

measured by (1) cooperation, (2) respect, (3) honesty,

(4) fighting, (5) feud, and (6) competition.

3.1.3 Physical Fitness Level

The calculation resulted in the following mean,

standard deviation, minimum score, and maximum

score:

Every item in the physical fitness assessment has

maximum score of five. There were 25 respondents,

so the total of ideal score for this variable was 625.

The result of data analysis revealed that the total score

of physical fitness was 441. Thus, the percentage was

441/625 x 100% = 70.56%. This indicates that the

physical fitness was in the category of strong.

As previously mentioned, the physical fitness was

measured using (1) a 50-meter sprint, (2) pull up, (3)

sit up, (4) vertical jump, and (5) a 1,000-meter run

test.

3.2 Result of Correlational Test

3.2.1 Variables X with Y1

The correlation coefficient (r) between basketball

extracurricular activity (X) and social behavior (Y1)

was 0.661. This coefficient is higher than the

observed r of 0.423. In other word, there are

significant correlation between basketball

extracurricular activity and social behavior.

3.2.2 Variables X with Y2

The correlation coefficient (r) between basketball

extracurricular activity (X) and physical fitness (Y2)

was 0.491. This coefficient is higher than the

observed r of 0.423. In other word, there are

significant correlation between basketball

extracurricular activity and physical fitness.

The result of the calculation and data analyses has

answered the research questions in this study. This

study was conducted to find out if there is a

significant correlation between basketball

extracurricular activity and social behavior and

between basketball extracurricular activity and

physical fitness. Based on the observation during the

research conduct at SMA Negeri 9 Bandung, the

basketball extracurricular participants looked fit

physically. Since basketball extracurricular activity

needs a lot of oxygen to be distributed to all over the

body through heart and blood vessels, it has a positive

impact on physical fitness (Bailey et al., 2009).

4 CONCLUSIONS

Based on the result of data analysis, it can be

concluded that:

 There is a significant correlation between

basketball extracurricular activity and students’

social behavior;

 There is a significant correlation between

basketball extracurricular activity and students’

physical fitness.

This study also recommends the following:

 Extracurricular activity is very necessary for

the development of students’ potentials, social

behavior, and physical fitness. Therefore, it is

expected that related stakeholders can

maximize extracurricular programs;

 It is recommended that schools provide and

support extracurricular programs to improve

students’ social behaviors and physical fitness;

 It is recommended that the parents also

motivate their children to actively participate in

various positive extracurricular activities to

maximize their development;

 It is recommended that students can utilize

their free time by participating in positive and

beneficial activities like extracurricular

activities;

 It is also recommended that further studies to

investigate similar research problems but with

taking into account some other variables so that

the result will be more comprehensive.
