Abstract

Writing is an important skill that everyone can explore the idea, thought, and knowledge in the form of composition.To have good writing skills, students need to follow the writing process that improves their writing attitude. In the writing process, students are prepared to compose in several phases: pre-writing, draft writing, editing, and revising. If the students do the steps of process writing systematically, it will build students’ writing attitude. In order to write well and produce a good task of writing, students need to have a positive attitude. Hence, students who have a writing attitude can influence students’ writing ability. This study aimed to find out the correlation between students’ writing attitude and writing achievement. Correlation research was used in this research. The participants were X.TKJ students of SMK N 1 Kayuagung. The respondents were 92 students. Written tests and questionnaires were used to collect the data. Pearson Product Moment correlation was used to analyze the data. The calculation using a Pearson product-moment coefficient found that r-obtained (0.014) was lower than r-table (0.202). It meant that there was no significant correlation between students’ writing attitude and writing achievement. It can be concluded that the students have a less writing attitude.
