The number of the distributed questionnaire can be explained in table 4 below: From the results of data validity test analysis, it can be said that all the instrument questions tested its validity. It can be seen from the value of r-value of each instrument of the question asked bigger than r table value (0.1646) so that all question instrument can be used in this research. Instruments that have been tested the level of validity then will be tested the level of reliability. Reliability with regard to the level of reliability or determination of measurement results (Sukmadinata, 2009). Ghozali (2009) states that reliability is a tool to measure a questionnaire that is an indicator or a variable or constructs. The high level of reliability is indicated by the value of the reliability coefficient. Of the four variables used, the skill variable has an alpha value of 0.642, which is categorized to moderate (moderate) reliability.

Based on the test of normality (for 101 respondents) with Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test obtained KSZ value of 0.104 and Asymp. Sig of 0.118 greater than 0.05 which can be inferred carry normally distributed data. In testing hypothesis by using multiple regression analysis which is the influence of ability (TOTALX1), attitude (TOTALX2), knowledge (TOTALX3), and skill (TOTALX4) to increase the productivity of economic sector of UMKM in Pangkalpinang by using gender as differentiate variable got the result as follows:   From table 8 of this research, it can be concluded that the competence of human resources of female employees (ability, attitude, knowledge, and skill) at UMKM in Pangkalpinang City can increase productivity from UMKM.
