Introduction The learning outcomes of a learning activity are influenced by the characteristics of students, in this case, learning independence. Learning independence is related to the behavior of students to carry out learning activities independently, where differences in the independence inherent in students result in differences in students' abilities in absorbing Islamic Religious Education teaching materials. In this case, students with high independence will have an impact on initiative, strong willingness to learn and readiness to learn on their own without depending on others, this is the opposite for students with low levels of independence. The level of independence between students with a high level of independence and students with a low level of independence is thought to have a different effect on the acquisition of student learning outcomes. This is due to the characteristics of students with high levels of independence who have a high level of independence to work seriously on Abstract This study aims to determine: (1) the positive and significant contribution of learning independence to the learning outcomes of Islamic Religious Education, (2) the positive and significant contribution of learning motivation to the learning outcomes of Islamic Religious Education, and (3) the positive and significant contribution of learning independence and motivation. Study together on the learning outcomes of Islamic Religious Education? The research was conducted at SMA Negeri 1 Sei Rampah. This research is a quantitative research with correlation research method. The population in this study were all students of class XI which consisted of 8 classes totaling 240 students. The research sample amounted to 72 students who were taken by random sampling technique. The data collection instruments used were questionnaires and tests. Analysis of the data used is correlation and regression. The research findings show: (1) there is a positive and significant contribution between learning independence and learning outcomes with a correlation number of 0.354 with the regression line equation Ŷ = 71.60 + 0.23X1, (2) there is a positive and significant contribution between learning motivation and learning outcomes. With a correlation number of 0.473 with the regression line equation Ŷ = 68.96 + 0.28X2. and (3) there is a positive and significant contribution between learning independence and learning motivation with learning outcomes with a correlation number of 0.549 with the regression line equation Ŷ = 138.80 + 0.18X1 + 0.25X2. The effective contribution of the learning independence variable to learning outcomes is 9.90%, while the effective contribution of the learning motivation variable to learning outcomes is 20.00%.
