Key Word: interpersonal intelligence and English speaking achievement

Interpersonal intelligence is the ability to understand and interact with others effectively. Interpersonal intelligence allows us to understanding and communication with others, including the ability to maintain relationship and to know that there are varieties of roles within a group.

The purpose of this research is to investigate whether there is correlation between interpersonal intelligence and student’s English speaking achievement of seventh grader students at SMPN 01 Mlarak in academic year 2018/2019 or not.

The subject of this research was the students of seventh grade at SMPN 01 Mlarak. Purposive technique sampling is used in this research., while the Smple was seventh grade A which consists of 32 students. The types of the data were quantitative data. The data were obtained from questionnaire of interpersonal intelligence and students’ English speaking achievement from the report in the from of document.

Based on the analysis above, that interpersonal intelligence was important in English speaking achievement, because speaking English was not easy as the people described, it can be defined that speaking learning process needs drill or practice on some exercises. So, there was significant correlation between students’ interpersonal intelligence and students' English speaking achievement of seventh grade students at SMPN 01 Mlarak in academic year 2018/2019. It was proven by the result of data analysis which rxy is 0,605. In standart significant table, for standart significant 5% rt is 0,349. While, for standart significant 1% rt is 0,449. Or can be written as 0,349 < 0,605 > 0,449. It meant rxy > rt. So, null hypothesis (H0) is rejected and alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted.

Based on the explanation above, the researcher conclude that there is correlation between students' interpersonal intelligence and students' english speaking achievement of the seventh grader at SMPN 1 Mlarak in Academic Year 2018/2019.

CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

A. Background of Study

Language has an important role in our life.

People use language to communicate with other.

Language is a system of symbols through which

people communicate. The symbol may be spoken,

written, or signed with the hand.1

English is one of foreign language considered

very important in international communication,

moreover, in the global era, the countries cannot

stand alone by themselves in their development.

They need and make corporation and relationship

with others. Therefore, the good generation who

have high skill and ability in many fields of

(London : Routledce, 1998),19.

Page 9: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

17

subjects including the language skills are needed,

especially in English.2

Speaking is an interactive process of

constructing meaning that involves producing,

receiving and processing information. It means that

speaking English is not easy as the people described,

it can be defined that speaking learning process

needs drill or practice on some exercises.3

However, there is a phenomenon that learning

speaking is something difficult. As we know, most of

students learn to speak English at school. They

generally learn how to explore their ideas and spoken

language. Yet, just some students can speak well on

the target language. In speaking classs, students

frequently feel afraid to express their ideas,

suggestions or their feelings, because some reasons.

2005), 2

18

They are afraid to be laughed if they make mistakes

in their speaking.4

Achievement is the result of learning that has

been achieved according to the capabilities not

found and marked with the developments and

changes to a person’s behavior is required of the

learning with a certain time. This achievement can

be expressed in terms of value and results of test

and exams.

Achievement is not only about mastery of

knowledge, but also about roficiency and skill in

observe and analysis something, solve the problem,

make some plan and make job ceiling. Students

must have a characteristic physiologist or

psychologist, which as regard physic condition, the

five senses, proclivity, propensity, perspicacity, ect.

In the school; the environment can looked from the

mastery of lesson which students passed it.5

One of the important factors that have an effect

on the successful in the learning is intelligence.

Intelligence is the ability to think in new ways if

need be original and daring to be different.

According to Howard Gardner as the picked up by

Anita Woolfolk in his book Educational Psycology,

there are at least seven separate kind of

intelligence, some of them is interpersonal

intelligence.

Interpersonal intelligence is the ability to

understand and interact with others effectively.

Interpersonal intelligence allows us to

understanding and communication with others,

including the ability to maintain relationship and to

pendidikan (Bandung; Remaja Rosdakarya, 2005) 179

Page 12: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

20

know that there are varieties of roles within a

group.6

The researcher take this title because she want

to investigate whether there is correlation between

students’ interpersonal intelligence and students’

English speaking achievement of seventh grade at

SMPN 01 Mlarak in Academic Year 2018/2019 or

not. An observation conducted by the researcher at

the seventh grade of SMPN 01Mlarak, when speak

English there are some of students’ afraid to speak,

sometimes their ideas or messages accepted by

other people smoothly because they feel insecure.

Beside it also when students are speak English in

front of the class, their performance is less

maximal. So, interpersonal intelligence are good at

kecerdasaan Jamak dan Pendidikan Berkeadilan(MMU, Bandung 2012), 94

Page 13: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

21

at understanding other people and gauging their

emotions, motivations, and intentions.

Therefore, is there any significant correlation

of interpersonal intelligence and students’ English

speaking achievement or not. It is necessary to

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

A. Theoretical Background

Theoretical background is important in

thesis. Theoretical background discussed

about the theory of variables that will search

by researcher. In this chapter discussed about

intelligences, kinds of intelligence,

interpersonal intelligence, and English

speaking achievement.

1. Students’ Interpersonal Intelligence

The word “interpersonal” is derived

from the prefix “inter” meaning “between” ,

and the word “person” .7 Interpersonal

Encounters, Sixth Edition (Wadsworth, cengage Learning Canada, 2019) 19.

Page 21: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

29

means interaction with another people. The

meaning of interpersonal also said with

communication or relationship. According to

Psychologist William Schutz as quoted by

Julia T. Wood in his book Interpersonal

communication: everyday encounters

explained that developed interpersonal need

theory, which asserts that our tendency to

create and sustain relationships depends on

how well they meet three basic needs. The

first need is for affection, the desire to give

and riceive love and liking. The second need

is for inclusion, the desire to be social and to

be included in groups. The third need is for

control, which is a desire to influence the

people and events in our live.8

8 Ibid., 10.

Page 22: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

30

According to Judy C. Pearson in his

book McGraw-Hill Higher Education,

Human Communication defined interpersonal

relationship include two or more people,

interpersonal relationship involve people who

are interdependent, individuals in

interpersonal relationship use some consistent

patterns of interaction, and individuals in

interpersonal relationship generally have

interacted for some time.9

From some definition above can

conclude that interpersonal is qualitatively as

communication that occurs within

interpersonal relationships.

Interpersonal intelligence is the ability

to understand and interact with others

Higher Education, New York, 2003), 169.

31

effectively. Interpersonal intelligence allows

us to understanding and communication with

others, including the ability to maintain

relationship, and to know that there are

varieties of roles within a group.10

Interpersonal intelligence is ability

of a person’s skill in creating

relationships, build social relations so that

both sides are in a good situasion.

According Gardner interpersonal

intelligence is the ability to understand and

be sensitive to the feelings, intentions,

motivation, character, temperament

others.11 The ability to perceive and make

distinctions in the moods, intentions,

motivations, and feelings of other people.

This can include sensitivity to facial

expressions, voice, and gestures; the

capacity discriminating among many

different kinds of interpersonal cues; and

the ability to respond evectively to those

cues in some pragmatic way ( e.g., to

influence a group of people to follow a

certain line of action).12

From the definition above can

conclude that in generally interpersonal

intelligence is the ability to establish

edition 2009),7.

33

relationship and communication with

various people.

a. Definition of Intelligence

According to Howard Gardner,

intelligence is the ability to solve or create

something worth a certain culture.

Whereas according to plate as quoted by

Anita E Woolfolk in his book Educational

Psychology that, intelligence consists of

three basic natures: (a) the capacity to

learn; (b) the total knowledge a person has

acquired; and (c) the ability to adapt

successfully to new situation and to the

environment in general.13

So from the above theory can be

concluded that some theorists believe

13

Anita E Woolfolk, Educational Psychology, (Library Of Congress Cataloging-In-Publication Data, New York 1995 ), 109.

Page 26: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

34

intelligence is a basic ability that affects

performance on all cognitively oriented tesks.

An “intelligent” person will do well in

computing mathematic problems, analyzing

poetry, taking history essay examinations,

and solving riddles.14

Intelligence is very general mental

capability that, among other thing, involves

the ability to reason, plan, solve problems,

think abstractly, comprehend complex ideas,

learn quickly and learn from experience. It is

not merely book learning, a narrow academic

skill, or test taking-smarts.15 From the

statement above intelligence is important for

35

learner, because ideas, plan, and the other is

lacked by learner to take action. But, each

student have differences in ability of

intelligence. So, rapidity in thinking and

learning also different.

The differences in intelligence are

possessed by each student. So, it influence in

learners ability. Intelligence differenciate will

make learners variety too. Because, not all

student can master all the intelligence. With

different intelligence on each student,

especially in interpersonal intelligence,

learners have different difficulties in their

ability in English speaking achievement.

Especially, in learning process in the

classroom or public society.

Page 28: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

36

b. Kinds of Intelligence

According to Howard Gardner

there are seven types of differences that

everyone seems to possess to a greater or

lesser degree. As the theory evolved, he

added an eight intelligence to the list.

These eight intelligences are :

1) Linguistic intelligence

2) Body-kinesthetic intelligence

3) Spatial intelligence

4) Musical intelligence

5) Logical-mathematical intelligence

6) Intrapersonal intelligence

7) Interpersonal intelligence

8) Naturalist intelligence16

c. Characteristic of Interpersonal Intelligence

Interpersonal intelligence is the ability to understand other people:

1. what motivates them

2. how they work

3. how to work cooperatively with

them.17

some characters can be viewed for

students, who have interpersonal

intelligence,

1. The students have a good ability to

know and understand others better in

the interest, desirre, or motivation.

2. The students being extroverted and

can be charismatic, because it can

6. Are good at discussions and debate

7. Create positive relationship with

8. Good at resolving conflict in

d. Dimension of Interpersonal Intelligence

According Gardner social intelligence

has three main dimensions that constitute a

coherent whole and complement each other,

namely:

a. The social sensitivity is the ability to feel

and observe reactions or changes

indicated others both verbally and non-

verbally.

b. Social insight is the ability to understand

and find solutions that are effective in

social interaction, so that these problems

do not hamper especially destroy social

relations.

Social communication or control of social

communication skills is the ability of

individuals to use verbal and nonverbal

communication process in establishes and

building a healthy interpersonal

relationship.19

2. English Speaking Achievement

a. Definition of Speaking

Speaking is one of the four language

skills (reading, writing, listening and

speaking). It is means through which learners

can communicate with others to achieve

certain goals or to express their opinions,

intentions, hopes and viewpoints.20The

mastery of speaking skill in English is a

priority for many second-language or foreign-

language learners.21 Speaking is an

interactive process of constructing meaning

that involves producing and receiving and

Page 33: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

41

processing information.22 According to Cora

and Knight, speaking is a crucial part of

second language learning and teaching which

involves producing, receiving and processing

information. For majority of people, the

ability of speaking a foreign language means

knowing that language because speech is the

main tool of human communication.23

According to Chaney, speaking is the

process of making and sharing meaning by

using verbal and non-verbal symbols in

different contexts. Brown and Burns and

Joyce defined speaking as an interactive

process of making meaning that includes

22Kathleen M. Bailey, Practical English Language Teaching,

(New York: The McGra-Hill Companies, 2005), 62. 23Ibid, 18.

Page 34: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

42

producing, receiving, and processing

information.24

Related to the definition of speaking, in

Florez say that “speaking is an interactive

process of constructing meaning that involves

producing and receiving and processing

information.” In addition, Hornby states that

“Speaking is used to show that whatyou are

saying is true in general, to convey the ideas,

and to have a conversation with somebody

about something.” Based on those statements,

it can be inferred that speaking is the ability

to use a language orally or say things that

cannot go back and be changed except with

repeating it. In another word, speaking is the

of Factors Influencing Learners’ English Speaking Skill. International journal of research in english education, 35.

Page 35: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

43

key to communicate.25 Hybel states that

speaking is a process of sharing information,

feeling, and ideas; it involves all of body

language mannerism and style-anything that

adds meaning to a message.26

From the definitions above, it can be

conclude that speaking is an abilityin a

process of interaction and communication to

convey the ideas and receiving information

between speaker and the listener.

Page 36: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

44

b. Function of Speaking

Numerous attempts have been made to

classify the functions of speaking in human

interaction. Brown and Yule made a useful

distinction between the interactional

functions of speaking, in which it serves to

establish and maintain social relations, and

the transactional functions, which focus on

the exchange ofinformation. There are three-

part version of Brown and Yule‟s, namely:

1) Talk as interaction

Talk as interaction refers to what we

normally mean by “conversation” and

describes interaction that serves a primarily

social function. When people meet, they

exchange greetings, engage in small talk,

recount recent experiences, and so, on

Page 37: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

45

because they wish to be friendly and to

establish a comfortable zone of interaction

with others.

2) Talk as transaction

Talk as transaction refers to situations

where the focus is on what is said or done.

The message and making oneself understood

clearly and accurately is the central focus,

rather than the participants and how they

interact socially with each other.

3) Talk as performance

The third type of talk that can usefully be

distinguished has been called talk as

performance. This refers to public talk, that

is, talk that transmits information before an

Page 38: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

46

audience,such as classroom presentations,

public announcements, and speeches.27

c. Basic types of Speaking

There are five basic types of

speaking,28 that is:

1) Imitative. At one end of a continuum of

type of speaking performance is the

ability to simply parrot back (imitate) a

word or phrase or possibly a sentence.

While this is a purely phonetic level of

oral production, a number of prosodic,

lexical, and grammatical properties of

language may be included in the criterion

performance. We are interested only

in what is traditionally labeled

27Jack C. Richards, Teaching Listening and Speaking (New York:

Cambridge University Press, 2008) 21. 28

Douglas, Language Assessment, 141-142

Page 39: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

47

“pronunciation”, no inferences are made

about the test-taker‟s ability to

understand or convey meaning or to

participate in an interactive conversation.

Theonly role of listening here is in the

short-term storage of a prompt, justlong

enough to allow the speaker to retain the

short stretch of language that must be

imitated.

2) Intensive. A second type of speaking

frequently employed in assessment

context is the production of short

stretches of oral language designed to

demonstrate competence in a narrow

bandof grammatical, phrasal,

lexical,orphonological relationship (such

as prosodic elements-intonation, stress,

Page 40: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

48

rhythm, juncture). The speaker must be

aware of semantic properties in order to

be able to respond, but interaction with

an interlocutor test administrator is

minimal at best.

3) Responsive. Responsive assessment tasks

include interaction and test

comprehension but at the somewhat

limited level of very short conversations,

standard greetings and small talk, simple

requests and comments, and the like. The

stimulus is almost always a spoken

prompt (in order to preserve

authenticity). With perhaps only one or

two follow up questions or retorts.

4) Interactive. The difference between

responsive and interactive speaking is in

Page 41: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

49

the length and complexity of the

interaction, which sometimes includes

multiple exchanges and/or multiple

participants. Interaction can take the two

forms of transactional language, which

have the purpose of maintaining social

relationships. (In the three dialogues

cited about, A and B were transactional,

and C was interpersonal.) In

interpersonal exchange oral production

can become pragmatically complex with

the need to speak in a casual register and

use colloquial language, ellipsis, slang,

humor, and other sociolinguistic

conventions.

5) Extensive (monologue) extensive oral

production tasks include speeches, oral

Page 42: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

50

presentations, and story-telling, during

which the opportunity for oral interaction

from listeners is either highly limited

(perhaps to nonverbal responses) or ruled

out altogether. Language style is

frequently more deliberative (planning is

involved) and formal extensive tasks, but

we cannot rule out certain informal

monologues such as casually delivered

speech (for example, my vacation in the

mountains a recipe for outstanding pasta

primavera, recounting the plot of a novel

or movie).

d. Characteristics of Successful Speaking

Activity

There are four characteristics of

successful speaking activity, that is:

Page 43: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

51

1) Learners talk a lot. As much as possible

of the period of time alloted to the

activity is in fact occupied by learner

talk. This may seem obvious, but often

most time is taken up with teacher talk

or pauses.

2) Participation is even. Classroom

discussion is not dominated by a

minority of talkaktive participants: all

get a chance to speak, and contributions

are fairly evenly distributed.

3) Motivation is high. Learners are eager

to speak: because they are interested in

the topic and have something ne to say

about it, or because they ant to

contribute to achieving a task objective.

Page 44: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

52

4) Language is of an acceptable level.

Learners express themselves in

utterances that are relevant, easily

comprehensible to each other, and of an

acceptable level of language accuracy.29

e. Problem in Speaking Activity

There are four problem in speaking

activity, that is:

1) Inhibition. Unlike reading, riting amd

listening activities, speaking requires

some degree of real-time exposure to an

audience. Learners are often inhibited

about trying to say things in a foreign

language in the classroom: worried

about making mistakes, fearful of

29Penny Ur, A Course in Language TeachingPractice and

Theory, (Chambridge Teacher Training and Development, 1991), 120.

Page 45: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

53

criticism or losing face, or simply shy

of the attention that their speech

attracts.

2) Nothing to say. Even if they are not

inhibited, you often hear learners

complain that they can not think of

anything to say:they have no motive to

express themselves beyond the guilty

feeling that they should be speaking.

3) Low or uneven participation. Only one

participant can talk at a time if he or she

is to be heard; and in a large group this

means that each one ill have only very

little talking time. This problem is

compounded by the tendency of some

learners to dominate, hile others speak

very little or not at all.

Page 46: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

54

4) Mother-tongue use. In classes here all,

or a number of, the learners share the

same mother tongue, they may tend to

use it: because it is easier, because it

feels unnatural to speak to one another

in a foreign language, and because they

feel less „exposed‟ if they are speaking

their mother tongue. If they are talking

in small groups it can be quiet difficult

to get some clesses-particularly the less

disciplined or motivated ones-to keep to

the target language.30

f. The Component of speaking

According to H. Douglas B, speaking

is a complex skill because at least it is

concerned with components of grammar,

30Ibid, 121.

Page 47: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

55

vocabulary, fluency, pronunciation, and

comprehension.31

1) Grammar. Grammar is theoretically to

have short conversation where each

utterance consist of nothing but a single

word or sort phrase, as in this

invented.32The grammar of a language

is the description of the ways in which

word can change their form and can be

combined into sentences in that

language.

2) Vocabulary. One cannot

communicative effectively or express

their ideas both oral and written form if

they do not have sufficient vocabulary.

31Brown. H Douglas, Language Assessment : Principals and

Classroom Practices, (Longman : California, 2003) p.140. 32Thornbury, How to Teach Speaking, 20.

Page 48: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

56

Without grammar very little can be

conveyed, without vocabulary nothing

can be conveyed. So, vocabulary means

the appropriatediction which is used in

communication.33

3) Fluency. Fluency can be defined as the

ability to speak fluently and accurately.

Fluency in speaking is the aim of many

language learners.Fluency is the

capacity to speak fluidly, confidently,

and at rate consistent with the norms of

the relevant native speech community.34

4) Pronunciation. Work on pronunciation

is important for two main reasons: to

help the students understand the

Linguistics, 2010, p.5. 34Kathleen, Practical… 5.

57

spokenEnglish they hear and to help

them make their own speech more

comprehensible and meaningful to

other.35

5) Comprehension. For oral

communication it certainly takes the

subject to respond to speech as well as

initiate.

B. Previous research findings

This study needs some previous

research as a considerations theory. The

details explain as below.

The first previous research finding that

can be used as a considerations theory is

taken by Rahmawati (2016), in her research “

the correlation between self-esteem to the

students’ speaking achievement. The other

research is from, Retno Rismi Untari from

English Education Departmen of STAIN

Ponorogo, and the title is “The Correlation

Between Students’ Self Confidence and

English Speaking Ability in SMPN

Ponorogo. In this study conclude that there is

correlation between self-confidence and

speaking ability. She applied quantitative

Page 51: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

59

research with correlation design research.

The objective of his research is to find out

self confidence, and speaking skill (the

correlation study in SMPN Ponorogo). She

analyze that there is significant correlation

between self confidence and speaking skill.

From those three research finding can

assumed that without having self-esteem, self

confidence (Social communication or control

of social communication skills is the ability

of individuals to use verbal and nonverbal

communication process in establishes and

building a healthy interpersonal relationship)

and speaking component such as fluently,

learners cannot speak the language or express

their ideas or feeling accurately, freely and

fluently. In other words, it can be said that

Page 52: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

60

when learners have abilty to understand

others and fluently they will have a good

communication.

Based on Previous study above, the writer

concludes that there is significant correlation

between interpersonal intelligence and

students’ English speaking achievement. So,

the writer supposed it’s a need to do a reseach

especially in English subject of junior high

school.

C. Theoretical Framework

This research have two variable are

independent and dependent. And to different

about two sentences used symbols X and

symbol Y, symbol X used to independent and

symbol Y used to dependent, such as:

Page 53: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

61

X = Student’s interpersonal Intelligence

Y = English speaking achievement

From the two variable above, we can

conclude that the theoretical framework as

follow:

1. If the students have good interpersonal

intelligence, the student’s speaking

achievement in English is high.

2. If the students have bad interpersonal

intelligence, the student’s speaking

achievement in English is low.

D. Hypothesis

Hypothesis is the alternative of guess

answer which was made the researcher for

the problem which has resented in his

research. The guess answer is the truth which

Page 54: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

62

will be tasted his truth by collecting data

which is collected by the researcher.36

After finding out the idea sketch of

researcher takes the hypothesis that :

Ho : There is no significant correlation

between students’ interpersonal

intelligence and students’ speaking

achievement in English of seventh

grade at SMP 1 Mlarak in

academic year 2018/2019

Ha : There is significant correlation

between students’ interpersonal

intelligence and students’ speaking

achievement in English of seventh

grader at SMP 1 Mlarak in

academic year

CHAPTER III

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

In this chapter, the writer discusses the related

frame to the method in analyzing the problem of

the study. It involves a set of research activities

used in this study. Such as research design,

population and sample, instrument of data

collection, and technique of data analysis.

A. Research Design

This research applies a quantitative

approach. A quantitative approach to research

is the most appropriate method to address

research question. Quantitative research is the

systematic collection of data that result in the

Page 57: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

65

quantification of characteristics of participants

in the study.37

Research is a scientific method to gain

the knowledge by using an investigation for

finding out an empirical fact which verifies the

hypothesis.38

There are two variable in this research,

namely interpersonal intelligence and students’

English speaking achievement. Interpersonal

intelligence is independent variable and

students’ English speaking achievement is

dependent variable. Interpersonal intelligent is

taken from the result of questionnaire;

meanwhile students’ English speaking

achievement of seventh grade is taken from the

66

report in the from of document. The proposed

design of the research is as follow.

X : Interpersonal Intelligence (variable X)

Y : Students’ English speaking achievement

(variable Y)

B. Population and Sample

1. Population

Population based on Brog, W. R.,

Gall, M.D. in Mohammad Adnan Latief,

is defined as all the members of a real or

hypothetical set of people, events, or

object to refer educational researchers

wish to generalize the results of the

research.39 In this research takes of

seventh graders at SMPN 01 Mlarak

Page 59: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

67

Ponorogo in Academic Year 2018/2019 as

the population. Consist of sixth classes

with total population are 130 students.

2. Sample

Acording to Charles C.M in

Mohammad Adnan Latief “ sample is a

small group of people selected to

represent the much larger entire

population from which it is drawn.”40

According to Louis Cohen, a sample size

of thirty is held by many to be the

minimum number of cases if researchers

plan to use some from of statistical

analysis on their data, though this very

69

n = number of sample42

for determining sample of 130,

researcher took with the formulation

below :

no = = 384,16

n =

=

n = 97 students

according to that formula

above, the total sample in this research is

97 students. On the other hand, every class

have 32 students. It means that the

researcher showed take different formula

42

Andhita Dessy Wulansari, penelitian pendidikan: suatu pendekataan praktek dengan menggunakan SPSS.(STAIN PO PRESS, 2012),48.

Page 62: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

70

to determine the total sample of researcher

:

nt = n

= 97

nt = 23,87 24 students

the calculation of total sample

above, shows that in this research, the

researcher took 24 students as respondent

each class.

So based on the statement above,

the researcher take 24-32 students as a

sample of the seventh grade at SMPN 01

Mlarak. It means 25% from the

population. In this study the researcher

used saturation sampling.

C. The Instrument of Data Collection

Page 63: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

71

The instrument in this research is

questionnaire that will be used to know the

interpersonal intelligence based on indicators

In quantitative research, instrument of

data collection or the research instrument is

agreed with the instrument validity and

reliability. They are used to measure the data

from questionnaire. The complete explanations

are follows:

1. Validity

Validity is an important key to

effective research. According to Karl

Person, validity is the correlations product

moment technique.43 The steps to

calculate the validity are :

a. Make the table of item analysis of

all questions.

2. Reliability

Reliability is used to measure

instruments of data collection and to

identity the reliable of data collection

especially questionnaire. In quantitative

research, reliability is an essentially a

synonym for dependability, consistency

and explicability over times, over

instruments, and over groups of

respondents.45 In this research Cronbach

Alpha theory is used to analyze reliability

of the data, the formula as follow:

= [ [1- ]

45

Louis Cohen, Lawren Manion, Keith Morrison, Research Method in Education, (New York: Madison A Avenue, 2007), 146.

Page 70: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

78

rII = test reliability

K = total test

∑si2 = total variant of test score

St2 = total variant of total score 46

To identify variance score items used the

formula as follow:

Ϭ2i = ∑i

n 1x2 – (∑in 1x2)2

N N Ϭ : total variance

∑in 1x2 = square total of X item

N = the sum of students

Based on calculation above, the result of

are 32.329. Than to identify total variance is

used this formula, as follow47

= [ [1- ]

= [ [1- ]

79

= (1,05555556)( 0,8550381364)

= 0,902540259

= 0,903

From the calculation above, the result is

0,902540259 = 0,903 instrument of data

collection above is reliable. Because the result

rII = 0.903 rtable 0.361. based on cronbach alpha

analysis if the rii > rtable the data is reliable. It

can be concluded that the research instrument

in this research are reliable.

D. The Technique of Data Collection

Data is one essential components in a

research activity. The accurate data is the

starting point to conduct a research. This

research promotes the questionnaire and

documentation methods for collecting data.

Page 72: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

80

1. Questionnarie

According Best J.W, Khan J.V

questionnaire is a written instrument

consisting of question to be answered or

statement to be responded by respondent.

It is used to gather information about fact

or about opinion/attitude. Some

researchers use a separate instrument to

gather information on opinion or attitude

using scale, some others use questionnaire

to gather both information about fact as

well as about opinion or attitude.48

In this research, the researcher use

questionnarie technique of data collection.

Questionnarie is applied to measure

interpersonal intelligence of seventh

81

grade at SMPN 01 Mlarak Ponorogo in

Academic Year 2018/2019. The

questionnaire is constructed based on the

standardized procedures of making

questionnaire.

2. Documentation

In this research, documentation is

applied to measure the students’ English

speaking achievement at the seventh grade

students’ of SMPN 01 Mlarak Ponorogo

in Academic Year 2018/2019. The

documentation is constructed based on the

standarized procedures of apply the

documentation method. Its such as daily

notes, transcript, books, newspaper.

In making of this questionnaire, it uses

eighth of interpersonal intelligence by

Page 74: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

82

Howard Gardner. For more detail looks

this table 3.1, 3.2 (APPENDIX

Although, the scale that is used that is

likert scale, it is the scale that is used to

measure attitude, argument and people

perception about social phenomena. In the

research, social phenomena has appointed

specifically by the researcher, and called it

by research variable. This questionnaire is

used likert scale with answer choice and

scoring which has four answer choice, that

is A (Always), O (Often), S (Somestimes),

N (Never).49

E. The Technique of Data Analysis

Before using statistical formula, researcher

need to know the assumption that is used in the

use of the formula. By knowing the basic

assumption in using the formula, it would be

more prudent in employing and calculation.

Retno Widyaningrum said that the calculation is

required to test the assumption/ requirement, so

in the use of the formula and the obtained result

is do not deviate from the occur certainty. This

requirement test is occurred to use of the

parametric formula which the data are normal

Page 76: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

84

assumed.50 the researcher applied Microsoft

Excel for windows to find out the normality test.

In this study after conducting normality

test the researcher was testing hypothesis

using correlations as suggested by Andhita

Dessy Wulansari. Andhita said that Product

Moment Correlation is correlation technique

that is used to find out correlation two

variable.51

There are techniques to answer

hypothesis or statement of the problem in

number three is product moment correlation is

a technique to look for the correlation between

two variables that used. This technique is

developed by Karl Pearson. Because this data

is interval or ratio and total of n is minus from

30, so the use formula with correlation of

3. Discussion and Intepretation The researcher founded that rxy = 0,605

after that making an interpretation based on the

calculation whether any correlation between the

interpersonal intelligence and students’ English

speaking achievement of seventh graders of

SMPN 1 Mlarak Ponorogo in academic year

2018/2019.

Hypothesis test was used to measure the

correlation between students’ interpersonal

Page 111: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

119

intelligence and their English speaking

achievement. According to the data analysis

above, it can be identified that the coefficient

correlation product moment between students’

interpersonal intelligence and their English

speaking achievement was 0,605. This data

acquired from the correlation product moment

group data. The hypothesis test can be viewed

by determining the significant standart 5% and

1 % in the product moment table (rt). whether

rxy > rt meant that there is significant correlation

between students’ interpersonal intelligence and

their English speaking achievement. While rxy >

rt it meant that there was no correlation between

students’ interpersonal intelligence and their

English speaking achievement.

Page 112: CORRELATION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ THESIS

120

From the formula above, it was known

that df (= N-2) = 32- 2 = 3061 , so the standart

significant of 30 in 5% rt was 0,349. It meant

rxy > rt . while, standart significant 30 in 1% rt is

0,449. It meant rxy > rt.62

Based on the proof

above the researcher concluded that there was

significant correlation between students’

interpersonal intelligence and their English

speaking achievement of seventh grade

students’ at SMPN 01 Mlarak in academic year

2018/2019. It meant that the hypothesis which

promoted by the researcher was true.
