The beginning of human learning is from hearing, thus, many educational experts and educational theories claim that the first learning activity is auditory. The influence of students’ listening comprehension, such as cognitive factors and psychological aspects also involved. One of the psychological problems is students’ interest. The purpose of this research is to find out a significant correlation between students’ interest in listening and their listening comprehension on the eleventh-grade students of SMKN 3 Tanah Putih, Rokan Hilir. The sample of this research was 26 students. The technique used in this research was correlational. In collecting the data, this research was distributing questionnaires to the respondents to assess students’ interests. Aside from assessing students’ listening comprehension, this research conducted a listening test for the students. In analysing the data, the questionnaires were assessed by Likert’s scale rating. The result of this research showed that the score of Sig. (2-tailed) gathered from SPSS 22, it was found that Sig. (2-tailed) the result was 0.001. Because of Sig. (2-tailed) was smaller than 0.05, it can be concluded that the null hypothesis (Ho) was rejected, and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted, which states there is a significant correlation between students’ interest in listening and their listening comprehension. In conclusion, there is a positive correlation between students’ interest in listening and their listening comprehension. It means that students with higher interest will get better listening comprehension than the lower one. In other words, the higher the interest of students, the better listening comprehension can be achieved.

“…In the process of listening comprehension, listening strategies play a positive role (Siegel, 2015), and, on the contrary, listening skills and strategies are still neglected points that were not deeply researched (Doğan & Özçakmak, 2014). The insufficiency of studies also increases the need for new studies on listening strategies in the teacher candidates’ education (Karagöz et al, 2017).…”

This study aimed to develop Turkish Teacher Candidates’ Self-Efficacies to Use Listening Strategies Scale. Therefore, the study was designed in sequential explanatory design, and sequential timing has been followed. First, the interview study was conducted with 40 participants, and the qualitative data were analyzed through content analysis. Subsequently, an item pool was designed via the findings obtained from the qualitative findings and literature review. Afterward, the draft form was applied to Turkish teacher candidates and 345 valid forms were obtained. As a result of the exploratory factor analysis conducted for the data obtained, we determined that the items were collected in four factors in total. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient was calculated as .927 for the scale. Confirmatory factor analysis was performed in the last stage, and finally, we found that all factors are statistically significant and the obtained model has a good fit. In addition, we determined that the qualitative findings have chronological categorization and the quantitative findings have thematical categorization. This means that thematic categorization to the listening strategies can be more appropriate for listening skills. Consequently, the scale can be used in determining the self-efficacy perceptions of Turkish teacher candidates to use listening strategies. Furthermore, the scale can contribute to similar studies in the literature.
