Abstract

Correlation of Vocabulary Proficiency and Learninng Styles with Reading Comprehension of Prospective English Teachers: A Case of Universitas Lampung. Objectives: To analyze the correlation of vocabulary proficiency (X1) and reading achievement (Y); second, to investigate the correlation between learning styles (X2) and reading achievement (Y); and to analyze the composite correlation between X1, X2 and Y. Methods: Simple random technique was used, 80 students were chosen, out of 120, based on the total sample, i.e., all students taking reading comprehension and vocabulary. A questionaire was used to measure  learning styles, and two sets of tests were used, to measure vocabulary and reading achievement. Findings: There was a correlation between students’ vocabulary proficiency (X1) and reading achievement (Y), r = 0.532; there was a correlation between learning styles (X2) and reading achievement (Y), r = 0.784; finally, there was a correlation between X1, X2 and Y, r = 0.823. Conclusion: Vocabulary proficiency and learning styles play important roles in improving reading achievement.Keywords: vocabulary proficiency, learning styles, comprehension.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.23960/jpp.v12.i3.202203

Abstract

The objective of the research is to investigate the correlation between students’ perception on authentic materials and cooperative strategy on their reading achievement. Method: Three hypotheses were tested: a. perception on authentic materials and reading comprehension; b. perception on cooperative strategy and reading comprehension, and c. perception on authentic materials and cooperative strategy toward reading achievement. Findings: The reliability of reading test was rii = 0.96; perception on authentic materials was rii = 0.913; and that of the cooperative strategy was rii = 0.862. Conclusion: a. There is a positive correlation between perception on X1 and Y, Y = 11.046 + 0.270; X1 coefficient correlation r13 = 0.431. b. There is a significant effect of X2 on Y, Y = 11.350 + 0.625, X2 coefficient correlation r23 = 0.411. c. There is significant effect of X1 on X2, X1 = 5.314 + 0.974, X2 coefficient correlation r12 = 0.436.Keywords: authentic materials, cooperative strategy, comprehension achievement.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.23960/jpp.v12.i2.202223
