Abstract

Possessing a strong vocabulary enhances students' communication skills, enabling them to express ideas effectively. Observations revealed issues such as limited vocabulary, inability to grasp word meanings, difficulty in producing new words, and memorization challenges among some students. To address these issues, various methods and habits, including listening to English songs, can improve vocabulary. Repeated listening to English songs becomes a habit, exposing students to new vocabulary in song lyrics. This research aimed to investigate the correlation between students' habit of listening to English songs and their vocabulary mastery among 8th-grade students at Mts Yusufiyah Jakarta Timur. The study utilized a quantitative approach, including prerequirement tests (normality and linearity), with a sample of 30 students from class VIII Mts Yusufiyah. Data collection involved questionnaires and tests, with analysis using a T-test. Results indicated a significant positive correlation (r = 0.644) between students' habit of listening to English songs (X) and their vocabulary mastery (Y), with a significance level (α) of 0.05. The p-value (2-tailed) was 0.00, smaller than 0.05, confirming the correlation's significance. Thus, the null hypothesis (Ho) was rejected, and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted. In conclusion, there is a strong and positive correlation between the habit of listening to English songs and vocabulary mastery
