Furthermore, the data were analyzed using the product moment correlation from person by first conducting prerequisite tests, namely normality and homogeneity tests. The findings revealed a favorable association, with the calculation of the correlation coefficient (rcount) obtained a score of 0.655, then the score compared with at a significant level of 5% for N = 53 and df = N – 2 = 53 – 2 = 51, the number 0.273 was obtained and it could be seen that was higher than or 0.655 0.273, so the null hypothesis (Ho) was rejected and the hypothesis alternative (Ha) was accepted.
