The Relationship Between 5th Graders' Reading Comprehension, Reading Motivation and Reading Habits

Year 2011, Volume: 31 Issue: 3, 793 - 815, 01.09.2011

Abstract

This study aimed wheter or not reading comprehension was affected directly by intrinsic and extrinsic reading motivation, and indirectly by the mediation of the reading habit. The study group comprised a total of 481 fifth graders from the lower, middle and upper socioeconomic levels. Accoding to the results of the study intrinsic motivation was found to have a positive effect on reading comprehension. It was also found that extrinsic motivation affects reading comprehension negatively but that its "competition" dimension affects reading comprehension positively. The results showed that intrinsic motivation, not extrinsic, is effective when reading stems from students' personal tendencies. Students seemed to spend time on reading materials that tap their interests and curiosities outside school. However, during school-related reading hours, extrinsic motivation seemed to have a stronger effect. The results also showed that students' reading habits did not affect their reading comprehen

Abstract

Bu araştırmada içsel ve dışsal okuma motivasyonunun okuduğunu anlamayı doğrudan ve okuma alışkanlığı aracılığıyla dolaylı olarak etkileme durumu test edilmiştir. Araştırma ilişkisel tarama modeli çerçevesinde yürütülmüştür. Araştırmanın çalışma grubunu alt, orta ve üst sosyoekonomik düzeye mensup toplam 481 ilköğretim 5. sınıf öğrencisi oluşturmaktadır. Araştırma sonuçları, içsel motivasyonun okuduğunu anlamayı olumlu yönde etkilediğini;rekabet faktörü hariç dışsal motivasyonun ise olumsuz yönde etkilediğini göstermiştir. Öğrencilerin okulda daha çok dışsal motivasyon nedeniyle okuduğu, kişisel tercihlerine dayalı okumalarında ise içsel motivasyonun etkili olduğu belirlenmiştir. Öğrencilerin okuma alışkanlıklarının okuduğunu anlama başarısına doğrudan etkisinin olmadığı belirlenmiştir.
