The effectiveness of using semantic mapping for vocabulary development to improve reading comprehension ability among year five pupils
description <p>This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of using semantic mapping to develop</p><p>pupils vocabulary development to improve their reading comprehension ability. The</p><p>instruments used in this study was adapted from Word Association Test (WAT), Vocabulary</p><p>Size Test (VST) and a reading comprehension test prepared by the Selangor Education</p><p>Department. A total of 30 Year five pupils from a primary school in a district of Klang</p><p>participated in this study. This quasi-experimental research design involved one experiment</p><p>group. Pupils were given a pre-test and post-test on reading comprehension, VST and WAT.</p><p>It was analysed using paired sample t-test and Pearsons correlation coefficient. The t-test</p><p>result on WAT was statistically significant with a p-value of .00 (p<0.05). The t-test result</p><p>on VST 1000 was statistically significant with a p-value of .00 (p<0.05). However, the t-test</p><p>result on VST 2000 was not significant as the results were .842 (p<0.05). Similar results</p><p>were obtained from VST 3000. The t-test results on VST 3000 was not significant with the</p><p>p value of .816 (p<0.05). The Pearsons correlation coefficient results showed that there was</p><p>a significant relationship between the pupils vocabulary size and pupils reading</p><p>comprehension ability with a p-value of .009 (p<0.05). The correlation coefficient also</p><p>showed that there was a significant relationship between vocabulary depth and reading</p><p>comprehension with a p-value of .007 (p<0.05). In conclusion, it shows that the use of</p><p>semantic mapping has a positive effect on pupils reading comprehension ability. The</p><p>implication of study shows that the use of semantic mapping can develop vocabulary which</p><p>improves reading comprehension ability.</p>
