One of the skills that students must possess in the twenty-first century is solving problems. Students' strong perseverance and openness to problem-solving can improve mathematics learning achievement. However, only a few studies in developing countries have examined this topic. This aim study examines the relationship between openness and perseverance to problem-solving on mathematics learning achievement in Indonesia. This study uses multilevel modeling from the 2012 PISA dataset to explore the variables that affect students' mathematical performance. The results obtained with the help of the stratified model are that openness and persistence to problem-solving are statistically significant predictors for the success of learning mathematics. The higher the attitude of openness and perseverance to problem-solving, the higher the students' mathematics learning achievement. © 2024 Author(s).
