Learning concentration is a process of focusing the mind on learning to the exclusion of other things outside of learning. This study aims to analyze the creativity of junior high school students in solving mathematics HOTS questions based on learning concentration. This type of research is a descriptive qualitative research, with 6 research subjects as representatives of the groups of very high learning concentration, high learning concentration, and moderate learning concentration. The instruments used in this study were a learning concentration questionnaire to measure the concentration level of students' learning, mathematics HOTS questions to test students' creative thinking skills, and interview guidelines. The data from the learning concentration questionnaire were analyzed using a Likert Scale, the data from the creative thinking skill test were analyzed based on the components of creative thinking, namely: fluency, flexibility, and novelty. The test and interview data were analyzed using the method of Miles, Huberman and Sadana.
