ABSTRACT Intan Putri Amania Salsabila, 2320086, The Correlation between Students' Self-Efficacy and Their Reading Achievement of The Fourth Semester Students Of English Department, A Thesis, State Islamic University of Sjech M. Djamil Djambek Bukittinggi, 2026. This study was conducted to investigate several issues related to students' self-efficacy in reading. First, some students were willing to participate verbally in reading activities, but their self-efficacy had not yet stabilized, as shown by an inconsistent pattern of task success that made them hesitate to answer oral questions even though they had understood the material. Second, some students' self-efficacy only emerged when encouraged by lecturers or peers, indicating that it depended on external factors rather than developing internally. Third, some students showed low self-efficacy, yet still achieved high reading achievement, indicating that low self-efficacy does not always correspond to low reading achievement. Therefore, this study aimed to find out whether there was a significant correlation between students' self-efficacy and their reading achievement, the direction of the correlation, and the magnitude of the correlation among fourth-semester students of the English Department at UIN Sjech M. Djamil Djambek Bukittinggi. The design of this research was a correlational quantitative design. The population of this research was all fourth-semester students' of the English Department at UIN Sjech M. Djamil Djambek Bukittinggi, which consisted of 72 students'. This research used a total sampling technique because the population was less than 100, so the entire population was used as the sample. To collect data, this research used a questionnaire to measure students' self-efficacy, and the students' final examination (UAS) scores were used to measure their reading achievement. The data in this research was analyzed using the Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient with the SPSS 26 program. The research finding showed that the Pearson Product Moment Correlation was 0.070. It means, there was a positive but very weak correlation between students' self-efficacy and their reading achievement. ∝ was 0.05, so sig 0.557 > 0.05, also according to the hypothesis, r count 0.070 was smaller than r table 0.235. It could be concluded that Ho was accepted and Ha was rejected. It stated that there was no significant correlation between Students' self-efficacy and students' reading achievement. Thus, there was no significant correlation between students' self-efficacy and their reading achievement of the fourth-semester students' at English Department, UIN Sjech M. Djamil Djambek Bukittinggi.

To collect the data, the researcher used questionnaire and documentation of students’ self-esteem and their English Final Test score which are got from the English teacher. To analyze the data, the researcher used Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient (r) and to test the hypothesis, the researcher used r-test formula and consult the result into r-table with α = 0.05. The finding of the research showed that the coefficient of correlation (r) was 0.423. It means that there was moderate correlation between students’ self-esteem and their academic achievement. The correlation direction also showed that there is positive correlation between both variables. In the other words, based on hypothesis testing, the r-score was 0.423 whereas the r-table on α = 0.05 was 0.243. It means the r-score was bigger than r-table. Hence, Ha accepted and Ho rejected, which stated there is a correlation between students’ self-esteem and their academic achievement. In addition, coefficient of determination of students’ self-esteem has an 17.89% influence on students’ academic achievement.

Although Social emotional learning was indirectly applied in English learning process, students speaking confidence varied. Those with higher SEL competence tended to be more confident and engaged, while others appeared hesitant. This variation indicated a possible relationship between SEL and speaking self-confidence. Therefore, this study aimed to determine whether there was a significant correlation between students SEL competence and student self-confidence in speaking English among eighth-grade students at MTSs Asy-Syarif Koto Laweh.. This research used a quantitative correlational design. The population was the entire 8th-grade students of MTSs Asy-Syarif, with a total of 48 students selected using total sampling technique. The instruments used were a questionnaire of 45 statements for SEL competence (Zins et al., 2004) and 28 statements for students’ self-confidence in speaking (Febriyani et al., 2020), both using a Likert scale. The data were analyzed using SPSS, including validity and reliability tests, normality, linearity, and Pearson product-moment correlation. The results of this study showed a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.914 with a significance value of 0.001. This indicates a very strong and statistically significant positive correlation between students’ Social Emotional Learning (SEL) competence and their self-confidence in speaking. In other words, students with higher SEL competence tend to have higher self-confidence in speaking English.

This research examines the direction of anxiety characterized by feelings of worry or nervousness on the achievement of 7th-grade students learning English at SMP N 6 Padang. Anxiety can make it harder for students to focus, feel good about learning, and do well in class, especially in language subjects. Previous studies suggest that students who feel more anxious might struggle more in school, including in learning English. The goal of this research is to see how anxious these students feel about learning English, to check their grades in English, and to find out if there’s a connection between their anxiety levels and their performance in English. By understanding this relationship, the study hopes to help teachers create a more comfortable classroom environment, helping students feel less anxious and do better in English. This research used a quantitative approach to explore the link between anxiety and learning success in a group of 61 students chosen randomly. Anxiety was measured using a tool called the Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale (FLCAS), and students’ midterm scores represented their English achievement. Experts checked the questionnaire for accuracy, and statistical tests confirmed the results’ reliability. The findings show a moderate, significant connection between students’ anxiety and their English grades, with higher anxiety linked to lower grades. Results from 61 students show that as anxiety rises, grades tend to drop. This research highlights that anxiety impacts students' learning success, suggesting that creating a supportive classroom can help students feel more confident and achieve better results.
