Abstract
THE EFFECT OF USING CONTEXTUAL CLUE ANALYSIS TO INFER WORD MEANINGS ON STUDENTS’ READING COMPREHENSION ABILITY IN SMA NEGERI 4 YOGYAKARTA By: Nooriyyah Noorunnisa’ NIM. 06202244141 ABSTRACT This experimental research study is intended to find out whether there is any significant difference in terms of reading comprehension improvements between the students who are taught by using contextual clue analysis to infer word meanings and the students who are not taught by using contextual clue analysis to infer word meanings in SMA Negeri 4 Yogyakarta. This study involved 66 students of Grade X in SMA Negeri 4 Yogyakarta as the subjects of the study. There were 32 students in Class X B and 34 students in Class XD. Class XD was chosen as the experimental group while class XB is the control group. The experimental group was given contextual clue to infer word meanings as a reading strategy in the treatment whereas the control group was not taught by the strategy. The data of the pre-test and post-test of both groups were analyzed by applying descriptive and inferential analysis. The t-test was used to know whether the hypothesis was accepted or not. The results of the data analysis are presented in the following items. First, the mean score gained by the experimental group in the post-test (80.82) is higher than the mean score gained by the control group (74.97). Second, there is a significance difference between both groups proved by the t-test analysis result. The value of t-observed of the test ( ) is 2.817 and the value of t-critical in the table ( ) is 1.998. The is higher than so the data of this research is considered to have a significance difference. Therefore the hypothesis of this research “there is a significant difference in students’ reading comprehension ability between those who are taught by using contextual clues analysis to infer word meanings and those who are not” is accepted. This means contextual clue analysis to infer word meanings is believed to be an effective strategy to improve students’ reading comprehension ability.
