Abstract

The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between personality types and writing achievement of the undergraduate EFL students of UIN Raden Fatah Palembang in the 2016/2017 academic year. 78 students of English majors of the fifth semester took part in the study as the sample by using purposive sampling. The data of this study were collected by administering a questionnaire of Eysenck Personality Inventory (EPI) to assess personality types of the students and writing test to know students’ writing achievement. Pearson product moment correlation was applied to find out the correlation between personality types and writing achievement. In addition, the regression analysis was also used to find out the significant influence between personality types and writing achievement. The correlation coefficient or the r-obtained (-.037) was lower than r-table (.226). Then the level of probability (p) significance (sig.2tailed) was .747 higher than .05. It means that there was no significant correlation between personality types and writing achievement. Therefore, personality types is not the factor that affects students’ writing achievement.
