The sample was 30 class E2 students at SMAN 8 Tanjung Jabung Timur. Data collection was carried out using two instruments: (1) a self-efficacy questionnaire which was used to measure students' reading self-efficacy and (2) a reading comprehension test which was used to determine students' reading comprehension. The correlation of the two variables is calculated using Pearson Product Moment in SPSS 15. The results show that the correlation coefficient has a value between 0.20 and 0.40, then the two variables have a low level of correlation. Therefore, the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is rejected and it can be stated that there is no significant correlation between Self Efficacy and Reading Comprehension Ability of the tenth grade students' SMA N 8 Tanjung Jabung Timur. The coefficient of determination is 0.0723, indicating that the self efficacy has a 7.23% influence on students' reading comprehension ability, while the remaining 93% is caused by other factors.

The findings revealed that the mean score of the students’ social use of YouTube is 75.58, interpreted as ‘average’, whereas the mean score of the students’ speaking ability is 69.99, interpreted as ‘good’. Then this research discovered the  correlation  coefficient  between  the  two  variables  is  0.471,  and  following  the classification of correlation by Sugiyono (2009), this number denotes a ‘moderate’ and ‘positive’ correlation. Also, the  determinant coefficient  is  0.2218, indicating that the students’ use of YouTube has 22% influence on their speaking ability, leaving the other 78% to other factors, such as cognitive ones (conceptualization, formulation, and articulation), lingustic ones (pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary), and affective ones (self-control and anxiety). Having found these findings, it can be confirmed that the use of YouTube can influence students’ English speaking ability very well if they start using it wisely.
