Abstract

This research aimed to investigate the correlation between reading attitude and reading comprehension achievement among eleventh-grade students at MAN 1 Lahat. A correlational research method was employed to assess the relationship between these two variables. The study's population comprised nine classes of eleventh-grade students, from which a sample of 98 students was selected through convenience sampling. Data collection involved administering a reading attitude questionnaire designed to measure students' perceptions and feelings toward reading and a reading comprehension test to evaluate their comprehension skills. The correlation between the collected data was analyzed using SPSS 25 software. The findings revealed a correlation coefficient (r) of 0.011, significantly lower than the critical value of the r-table, set at 0.913. These results indicate a weak and statistically insignificant correlation between reading attitude and reading comprehension achievement among the eleventh-grade students at MAN 1 Lahat. Thus, it can be concluded that while there may be some relationship between these variables, the strength of this correlation is not sufficient to be considered meaningful within this specific educational context. Further research could be beneficial to explore additional variables that may significantly impact students’ reading achievements. Understanding these dynamics can provide educators with valuable insights into improving reading instruction and fostering better student comprehension skills.

Abstract

Reading is emphasized as a crucial activity for personal development and academic achievement. Strong reading comprehension skills not only support students’ academic performance but also contribute to the development of critical thinking and the expansion of knowledge. Understanding the factors that influence reading comprehension, such as self-esteem, is essential and worth exploring, particularly in the context of secondary education, where foundational skills and cognitive growth play a significant role in learning outcomes. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between self-esteem and reading comprehension achievement among tenth-grade students at MA Patra Mandiri in Palembang. To analyze the correlation between students’ self-esteem and their reading comprehension achievement, a correlational research design was applied. The study involved nine classes of tenth-grade students, and a sample of 116 students was drawn using a convenience sampling technique. Data were collected using a ready-made self-esteem questionnaire adopted by Kartika (2023) and a reading comprehension test. The findings indicated that the correlation coefficient (r) was 0.125, which was lower than the critical value of the r-table (0.180). Based on these results, it can be concluded that there was a low but insignificant correlation between self-esteem and reading comprehension achievement of tenth-grade students at MA Patra Mandiri Palembang
