RESEARCH METHODOLOGY The general objective of research is essentially the same: it is a reflection of the human desire to continually seek knowledge. The urge to acquire and develop knowledge is a fundamental human need and often serves as the motivation for conducting research. According to Sugiyono . , based on the level of explanation, research can be categorized as follows: Descriptive Research: This type of research is conducted to determine the value of an independent variable, either one or more, without making comparisons or connecting it with other Comparative Research: This is research that involves comparisons. The variables used remain independent variables, but the samples involve more than one group or are taken at different Associative Research: This type of research aims to determine the influence or relationship between two or more variables. Associative research is considered the highest level compared to descriptive and comparative, as it can lead to the development of theories that can explain, predict, and control phenomena. The research object refers to the source of data collection. In this study, the research population is the employees of PT Lobara Duta Anugrah Surabaya, totaling 40 individuals, from which a complete sample of the population is taken. According to Hadi . , the population is a group of individuals with at least one common characteristic. The population is the basis for generalizing the findings obtained from the Therefore, research is conducted on only a portion of the population, and this portion is referred to as the sample. In this study, the sampling technique used is probability sampling, specifically the simple random sampling method. Sugiyono . defines simple random sampling as the process of selecting sample members from the population in a completely random manner, without considering any strata within the population. Hence, the total sample in this study consists of all 40 employees. The data analysis technique used in this study is multiple linear regression analysis. This model is chosen because the researcher aims to determine the extent to which the variables of Sekolah Tinggi Ilmu Ekonomi Pemuda VOL. 6 NO. DOI: https://doi. org/10. 48024/ijgame2. employee development and work motivation affect employee performance, both simultaneously and partially. Data processing is conducted using the SPSS software, through which the influence of employee development and work motivation on employee performance can be measured. Hypothesis testing is performed using statistical tests and classical assumption tests. The model applied is the multiple linear regression analysis model. RESEARCH RESULTS AND DISCUSSION In this study, the degree of freedom . is calculated as 40 - 2 - 1 = 37. With an alpha level of 05, the r table value from the Product Moment correlation is 0. If the calculated r value . or each item, this can be found in the Corrected Item-Total Correlation colum. is greater than the r table value and the r value is positive, then HCA is rejected and HCa is accepted. Therefore, the item or question is considered valid, as shown in the table below.
