ABSTRACT

Laili, Erlinda Nur. 2022. The Correlation Between Students Vocabulary Mastery and Their Writing Skill at SMKN 2 Ponorogo. A Thesis. English Education Department Faculty of Education State Islamic College of Ponorogo (IAIN Ponorogo). Advisor: Dr. Dhinuk Puspita Kirana, M.Pd.
Key words: Vocabulary, Mastery, Writing, Skill.
We usually refer to listening, speaking, reading, and writing when talking about language skills. However, there is another essential skill in language learning that we seem to neglect, namely vocabulary. Mastery of vocabulary is a must for someone who wants to understand reading, conversation or writing. But, the fact shows that there are many problems that the teacher faces in teaching writing at SMKN 2 Ponorogo. One of them is the students' vocabulary mastery is still low. Therefore, the teacher plays a role in helping students to improve their vocabulary mastery because vocabulary plays a vital role in writing.
This research is aimed to find out the correlation between vocabulary mastery and students' writing skills in the tenth grade of SMKN 2 Ponorogo in the academic year 2021/2022.
This research applies a random sampling technique where the population is all the tenth-grade students of SMKN 2 Ponorogo, and the sample is 35 students. The data are collected by administering a vocabulary mastery test and writing skill test. The data are analyzed by using Pearson Product Moment to investigate the correlation between both variables.
The result shows that the coefficient between variable X and variable Y is rxy = 0,661. The criteria of correlation between two variables among 0.600 – 0.800 show a sufficient correlation. The significant level at 5% is rtable = 0,344 ,rxy > rtable (0,661 > 0,344). The significant level at 1% is rtable = 0,442 ,rxy > rtable (0,661 > 0,442). The analysis results show a significant correlation between vocabulary mastery and students' writing skills of students XA2 of SMKN 2 Ponorogo. Therefore, the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected, and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted. In other words, students with high scores on vocabulary tests tend to have good writing skills and vice versa.
