Abstract

Linguistic intelligence is individual’s ability of understanding and using language to achieve goals both in forms of written and spoken language. People with linguistic intelligence are good at writing, and they have sensitivity to structure (syntax), vocabulary, cadence, and literacy tools. However the focus of this study was linguistic intelligence that covered structure, syntax, and vocabulary ability. This study aimed at investigating (1) the correlation between students; linguistic intelligence and English essay writing ability (2) the contribution of students; linguistic intelligence to English essay writing ability (3) the correlation between students’ structure, syntax, and vocabulary ability and English essay writing ability, and (4) the contribution of students’ structure, syntax, and vocabulary ability to English essay writing ability. Correlational design was applied to conduct this study. The population was the sixth semester students of English Education Study Program of Faculty of Teacher Training and Education of Sriwijaya University (N=72) who were selected by applying total sampling technique. The data were collected through linguistic intelligence questionnaire, English essay writing ability, and structure, syntax, and vocabulary ability. Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient was used to analyze the data. The results yielded that there was no significant correlation between students’ linguistic intelligence and English essay writing ability with the p-value 0.570>0.05 in the significant level 5% (2-tailed). Then, there was a weak significant positive correlation between students’ structure, syntax, and vocabulary ability to English essay writing ability.
