Summary: | The objective of this research was to find out the relationship between
attitude and performance in English. 100 students from a school in Kota
Samarahan, Sarawak had participated in this research. The researcher
administered a set of attitude test to elicit data. The students' PMR
English results were used as the indicator of their performance in the
language. An analysis was done by employing the Pearson Correlation
Coefficients test.
The findings of this research shows a moderate to favourable attitude
towards English, but no correlation seems to exist as indicated by
students' poor performance in the PMR English examination. Thus, it
is proven that students' attitude and all other affecting variables can go
either way in determining students' performance in second language
learning. Some suggestions were recommended for researchers to
conduct future researches in a more widespread and effective ways. |
