Based on the calculation, it obtain rxy = 0.518 or in another word the correlation coefficient is positive means the increasing of one variable will followed by the increasing of another variable. The results of calculation through hypothesis test on product moment correlation coefficient in significant level of 5% (0.444) for n = 20 indicates that r-calculated is bigger than r-table or 0.518 > 0.444. Therefore, the alternative hypothesis is accepted and the null hypothesis is rejected means there is an influence of the life skill program at Yayasan Al Jam’iyatul Washliyah Binjai to the social Functioning of the cared child.
