Abstract: The main object of this research is to examine whether dividend policy in the form of dividend payout ratio and dividend yield influences the volatility of sharia stock price in the Indonesian Stock Exchange. This research uses the quantitative method by using the secondary data collected from the published Indonesian Stock Exchange. The sample in this research is 106 companies registered in the Indonesian Sharia Stock Index (ISSI) in 2016-2018. The dependent variable in this research is stock price volatility while the independent variables are dividend payout ratio, dividend yield, and data of earnings volatility, debt, and size that are collected and processed from the company financial report. Multiplied regression analysis is used for correlation test and hypothesis test using the SPSS software program version 15.0. The result of the research shows a shred of evidence that dividend per share and dividend payout ratio have no influence on the stock price volatility. The result of research can help the investors to select the sharia shares, and for companies, this research is useful to determine the dividend policy. Key Words:Dividend per share, dividend payout ratio, earnings volatility, stock price volatility
