Self-regulated learning (SRL) is a process carried out by students on their awareness in formulating goals, determining strategies, motivating and monitoring themselves in learning and evaluating the results of their learning. This study aims to describe the SRL of junior high school students in learning mathematics from gender differences. The method used in this research is quantitative descriptive. The study was conducted at SMPN 1 Pecangaan. The sample used was 73 8 th -grade students, consisting of 35 male students and 38 female students. The data were retrieved by using a questionnaire with Likert scale. The results of this study indicated that there were differences in SRL between male and female students in learning mathematics based on independent t-test (0.001< 0.05). Female students were superior in each indicator of all aspects of SRL, namely metacognition, motivation, and active involvement in learning activities. It can be concluded that female students have better SRL in learning mathematics compared to male students.
