Abstract
This study analyzes the relationship between creative thinking ability and understanding of mathematical concepts. The data were taken from 58 respondents who came from class XI students of SMA Negeri in Bandar Lampung. The data analysis used was path analysis, in order to see direct and indirect relationships between latent variables and to reconfirm the hypothesized model with the help of SPSS and Lisrel 8.80. The results showed that there was a good relationship between latent variables and other latent variables and between indicator variables and the latent variables themselves. There is a linear combination of the five latent variables for understanding mathematical concepts, namely associating various concepts so that only the other four indicators can be seen and there is a relationship between the indicator variables for understanding the concept and the latent variable for understanding the concept itself and the one that has a strong influence on the latent variable for indicators of creative thinking lies in the third indicator and the second indicator on the latent variable ability to understand mathematical concepts with the respective values of the coefficient λ of 0.96 and 1.32.
