Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of legal education and legal literacy on students' legal awareness. The study employed a quantitative approach involving 58 students as the sample, selected using a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS. The results showed that legal education had a positive and significant effect on legal awareness (β = 0.363; sig. = 0.026), as did legal literacy (β = 0.404; sig. = 0.002). Simultaneously, legal education and legal literacy had a significant effect on legal awareness (F = 10.733; sig. < 0.001). These findings confirm that strengthening practical legal education and legal literacy is necessary to improve students' legal awareness.
