description | Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a problem of distraction, confusion and lack of focus
in aspects of learning. It involves mastering the vocabulary of the ADHD student's first language. Therefore, this
study was conducted to identify the mastery of Malay vocabulary through visuals about career and discuss the
mastery of Malay vocabulary with Skinner's Theory of Behaviorism. The two objectives of this study are qualitatively
discussed in depth. The respondent for this study is a 15-year-old ADHD male student. A total of 20 research items
about the type of job that respondents need to answer using the correct Malay vocabulary. Items are given in the
form of colored visuals and respondents only have to answer the type of job according to the displayed visuals. The
findings of the study show that only eight questions can be answered correctly using the correct Malay vocabulary.
So, there are 12 question items that fail to be answered correctly using the correct Malay vocabulary. This happens
because ADHD students' mastery of Malay, which is not the same as normal students at the age of 15, has mastered
more complex Malay vocabulary. Nevertheless, the influence of the use of English vocabulary as a second language
can be controlled due to repeated use in the respondent's family environment. The application of Skinner's
Behaviorime Theory in the application of positive reinforcement can motivate mastery for learning Malay
vocabulary. However, negative reinforcement gives the effect of lack of confidence in the process of learning Malay
vocabulary when reprimanded for giving incorrect answers. This study suggests that the families of ADHD students
help improve the mastery of Malay vocabulary through oral, visual training and watching appropriate shows. |
