Using a quantitative approach, data were collected through questionnaires from 40 university students, measuring the frequency and types of reading materials and their writing skills. Statistical analysis revealed a significant positive correlation between reading habits and writing skills, with academic books and scientific articles being the most influential. The results indicate that students with better reading habits tend to have higher writing skills. The data showed that frequent readers enhanced their capacity to construct well-organized writing effectively. In conclusion, the study underscores the importance of reading habits in developing writing skills and recommends that students increase their reading frequency and diversify their reading materials. This research aims to contribute to effective learning strategies to improve literacy among university students and inform educational institutions in designing programs that encourage reading habits. date: 2024-11-29 date_type: published institution: Universitas Kristen Duta Wacana department: Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris thesis_type: skripsi thesis_name: other funders: ekklesyasinaga22@gmail.com citation: Ekklesia Roderna S (2024) THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN READING HABIT AND STUDENTS WRITING SKILL: A CASE STUDY OF UNIVERSITY STUDENTS IN YOGYAKARTA.
