This survey research to profile meta-affective based on students’ experiences in learning science. The research instrument is a questionnaire which compiled based on the Awareness Dimension (30 statements) and Regulation Dimension (21 statements) with two levels of response, namely frequency and intensity (scale 1-6). This questionnaire has been tested and the results of the analysis using the Winsteps Rasch Model show a value of 0.92 for Person Reliability and 0.99 for Item Reliability, while tests with IBM SPSS Statistics 22 show 0.934 for Cronbach’s Alpha. The research subjects involved were 634 students from 17 junior high schools spread over seven provinces with 355 students from grade 7, 153 students from grade 8, and 126 students from grade 9. The results show that the highest response was "Enjoy his/her self while completing the task” with frequency scale “Always” (51.7%) and intensity scale “Strongly Enjoy” (47.0 %). In addition, “Feel nervous during asked by the teacher” is following highest response which is frequency on the scale of “Sometimes” (41.5%) and intensity on the scale of “Somewhat Nervous” (40.9%). These results provide implications and opportunities for further research on how teachers facilitate positive and negative emotions felt by students during science learning.
