Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of perceptions of crime and anxiety in using public transportation on new YAI students of the Faculty of Psychology, Persada Indonesia University. The research sample was 97 people and used the incidental sampling method. The data collection method uses a scale of perceptions of crime and a scale of anxiety in using public transportation. The validity and reliability analysis used SPSS version 15.00 for windows. After testing, the value of the validity coefficient of the perception scale on crime was found to range from 0.276 to 0.765, so that 21 items were valid and 7 items were invalid with reliability of 0.781. While the anxiety scale test in using public transportation obtained the value of the validity coefficient is ranging from 0.13 to 0.770 so that 18 items were valid and 6 items were invalid with reliability of 0.736. Based on the results of the analysis of the Bivariate Correlation data, it was found that the correlation between perceptions of crime and anxiety in using public transportation was obtained. The analysis results obtained a coefficient of r = 0.355 with p = 0.000. This shows that there is an influence between perceptions of crime and anxiety in using public transportation. If the perception of crime in using public transportation owned by YAI's new students at the Persada University of Indonesia is getting higher, then the anxiety of using public transportation will also be higher.
