Description
The main aim of this study is to investigate semantic memory and academic achievement of middle school students from Monywa Township. This study was also investigated the significant differences in students’ semantic memory by their gender, grade, age group and parents’ education. Descriptive research design and survey method were employed. A total sample of 1000 students of Grade 8 and Grade 9 students (male=496, female=504) from selected schools in Monywa Township, Sagaing Region during the academic year 2014-2015 were selected as participants. Based on Clinical Evaluation of Language Fundamentals – Fifth Edition (CELF-5), (Eleanor Semel et al, 2013), semantic memory test (60 items) was developed as an instrument for this study. It consisted of seven subtests; word definition test, concept and direction test, recall and retrieval of spoken language test, word class test, semantic relationship test, sentence assembly test and formulated sentence test. Results of statistical analysis confirmed that middle school students had high skills in semantic memory. The t-test result showed that there was no significant difference between males and females, and also that Grade 9 students had better semantic memory than Grade 8 students. Age groups differences in semantic memory were not found significantly according to the t-test result. ANOVA results indicated that parents’ education affect on semantic memory of middle school students in this study. Correlation matrix showed that students’ semantic memory was positively correlated with their academic achievement. This research found that semantic memory impacts on students’ academic area and it can predict students’ academic achievement. To sum up, it is certain that the higher the semantic memory of the middle school students, the higher the academic achievement they will obtain. Semantic memory is a core component of general intelligence and learning, not only in the field of education but in educational psychology. By studying semantic memory of middle school students, it is valuable for educators to foster effective and quality education in one side or another.
