This study was motivated by low learning outcomes in Buddhist Religious Education and Character Building at SMKS Bakti Pangkalpinang: 82.35% of students had not achieved mastery in Semester 1 and 58.82% in Semester 2, presumably related to differing learning styles and low viriya (perseverance). This study analyzed the influence of learning styles and viriya on learning outcomes, partially and simultaneously, using a quantitative ex post facto approach on 58 of 68 students (Slovin formula, purposive sampling). Data were collected via a Likert questionnaire and outcome documentation, analyzed using multiple linear regression (IBM SPSS 25); instruments were valid-reliable and the model met the classical assumption tests. Results: Y = 15.479 + 0.747X1 + 0.297X2. Learning styles (t = 7.510; sig. = 0.000) and viriya (t = 2.993; sig. = 0.004) each had significant positive partial effects, and jointly significant effects (F = 74.112; sig. = 0.000) with an Adjusted R Square of 0.720 (72.0%). Learning styles were the most dominant, contributing 55.14%, underscoring the importance of appropriate learning styles and strengthened viriya.
