to improve students’ reading comprehension. It covered students’
literal comprehension, inferential comprehension and critical
comprehension. The research method employed was quasi

experimental group and control group. Each group consisted of 34
students. The sample was chosen by applying cluster sampling
technique. The researcher used multiple choice of reading test
both in experimental and control groups. The data obtained
through the test were analyzed by using inferential statistic
through SPSS 17.0 program. The research findings showed that
mind mapping technique gave higher contribution to the students’
reading comprehension. The mean score of pretest of the
experimental and control group was not significantly different.
The mean score of posttest of the experimental group was higher
than the control group (24.17 > 21.82). Besides, all the three
level of comprehension improved after the treatment, the literal
level got the highest improvement with 2.17 point. It was
followed by inferential level which got 2.03 point and critical
level which got 2.82 point improvement. This led to the

improved the students’ reading comprehension. It means that the
