2. Homogeneity of the Data
a. Pre-test Homogeneity Test Based on the calculation of normality, the writer got the result that all
data in pre-test and post-test of both experiment class and control class have been normally distributed. The next step of the calculation was finding the
homogeneity of the data. The purpose of this calculation was to see whether the data in both classes were homogenous or heterogeneous. The writer used
SPSS v.22 to find the homogeneity of the data by looking at the significant of the data. If it is higher than 0.05 it means that the data is homogeneous.

Levene Statistic df1
df2 Sig.
,085 1
84 ,772
Table 4.15 showed that the significance of pre-test score between experimental class and control class 0.772. Therefore, it can be inferred that
the pre-test data of both classes were homogenous since 0.772 is higher than 0.05 or 0.772 0.05.
b. Post-test Homogeneity Test After analyzing the homogeneity of pre-test class of experimental class
and control class, then, the writer looked for the homogeneity of post-test class of experimental class and control class by using SPSS v.22. The result
of post-test homogeneity test was described in a table as follows:
Table 4.16 Homogeneity of Post-test Results between Experimental and Control Class
Levene Statistic df1
df2 Sig.
,597 1
84 ,442
Table 4.16 showed that the significance of post-test score between experimental class and control class 0.442. Therefore, it can be concluded that the
post-test data of both classes were homogenous since 0.442 is higher than 0.05. After knowing the data is normal and homogenous, the writer calculated the
data to test the hypothesis that whether there is significant different between students’ reading comprehension of narrative text by using story mapping
technique in experimental class and stud ents’ reading comprehension of narrative
text without story mapping technique in control class by using parametric test. The writer calculated the data using t-test formula. Two classes were compared,
the experiment class was X variable and the controlled class was Y variable. The next table is statistical calculation of the gain score both experimental
class using story mapping technique and control class without story mapping
technique Table 4.17
