Abstract
Abstract. This study aims to examine the differences in students- mathematical intuition abilities. Gender was utilized to see the difference through Open-ended Inquiry-Based Learning. The design of this study was a Pretest-Post-test Control Group Experiment. The subject of this study was 156 seventh graders of two Islamic State Junior High Schools in Bekasi, comprising of 77 male and 79 female students. The instrument in this study used 5-item essay with 4 indicators of intuition (globality, self-evidence, power of synthesis, immediate). SPSS was used to analyze the data. The result of this study showed p-value > α (0,174 > 0,05). That means there was no difference in mathematical intuition ability between male and female students.
