ABSTRACT This research aimed to determine the correlation between third-year students' anxiety in speaking performance and their speaking ability in the English Department at Bung Hatta University. Using a correlational design, data were collected through a questionnaire and speaking tests, with reliability indices of 0.71 and 0.57, respectively. The analysis revealed a calculated r-value of 0.455, exceeding the r-table value of 0.3809 at a 0.05 significance level. This indicates a significant positive correlation, suggesting that higher anxiety is associated with higher speaking ability, while lower anxiety corresponds to lower speaking ability. Keywords: correlation, anxiety, speaking ability
