Abstract

This research aims to examine the effect of Problem Based Learning (PBL) Model on students reading comprehension of narrative text at grade XI of SMA Swasta Nasional Petatal in 2024/2025 academic year. Using a quantitative method with a pre-test and post-test experimental design, this research involved students in class XI-A and XI-B who were selected through a random sampling technique. Students' reading comprehension was assessed through pre-test and post-test results to determine the effectiveness of the PBL model in improving their understanding of narrative texts. The results showed a significant increase in reading comprehension, with an average score increase of 9.1% in one group and 15.8% in the other group. Data analysis using the t-test revealed that the increase was significant, as evidenced by the t-scores value exceeding the critical value at the 0,05 significance level. With degrees of freedom (df) 68 and a significance level of 0,05, the t-scores value was obtained of 7,16 which was greater than the t-table, which was 1,668 (7,16 > 1,668). These results indicate that the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted, which confirms the effectiveness of the PBL model in improving students' reading comprehension of narrative texts.
