THE CORRELATION BETWEEN VOCABULARY MASTERY AND STUDENTS READING COMPREHENSION
Abstract
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui apakah ada hubungan antara penguasaan kosakata dan kemampuan membaca siswa. Populasi dalam studi ini adalah kelas dua MIA 3 siswa SMAN 1 Sidomulyo. Ada 30 siswa sebagai sampel. Instrumen yang digunakan adalah tes kosakata dan tes membaca. Hasil perhitungan SPSS menunjukkan persentase rata-rata kemampuan membaca adalah 63,4% dan persentase rata-rata penguasaan kosakata adalah 60%, dan hasil perhitungan SPSS untuk korelasinya adalah 0,989. Koefisien korelasi lebih tinggi bahwa nilai kritis tabel (0,989> 0,32). Analisis statistik menunjukkan korelasi antara penguasaan kosakata siswa dan membaca adalah signifikan (p <0,01; p = 0,000). Jadi, hipotesis nol (H0) ditolak dan hipotesis alternatif (H1) diterima. Ini berarti ada korelasi antara penguasaan kosakata dan pemahaman membaca siswa.
