Mathematical literacy refers to an individual rsquo s competence to apply mathematics in solving problems and to communicate solutions across various real-world contexts. Mathematical literacy consists of eight proficiency levels ranging from level 1c to level 6. This study aims to describe the mathematical literacy of junior high school students in solving PISA tasks examined through the lens of information processing theory. This study employed a qualitative case study design. The research subjects comprised seven students representing each mathematical literacy level selected from thirty-three ninth-grade students who completed a PISA test. The instruments included eight PISA tasks representing mathematical literacy levels from 1c to 6 and an interview guide. Data analysis was conducted in three stages data reduction data presentation and conclusion drawing. The students rsquo thought processes in solving PISA tasks were analyzed using the Atkinson-Shiffrin information processing framework. The results indicate that the higher the students rsquo mathematical literacy level the more complex their information processing becomes in solving PISA tasks. Students at highest literacy levels could comprehend information from various forms of representation develop systematic and well-planned solution strategies and perform targeted repetition to verify solution steps. Information retrieval was efficiently accessed and applied within working memory. Moreover information transformation was carried out deeply and meaningfully. In contrast students with lowest mathematical literacy levels could only receive information directly focus on explicit information and employ simple solution strategies. Their information repetition and retrieval of prior knowledge remained limited to basic concepts. Additionally their information transformation processes were still simple limited to converting visual data into numerical form.
