This study aims to
investigate the impact of using global reading strategies on L2 reading
motivation. In addition, it probes into if any discrepancy exists between
female and male students regarding their use of global reading strategies
through using questionnaires on global reading strategy use and reading motivation. Furthermore, underlying reasons for the possible discrepancy was discussed by
providing students’ perspectives on the
issue with focus group discussion. For this research, 66 ELT first grade
students participated in the research,
answered the global strategy use questionnaire and reading motivation
questionnaire. The study reveals a positive
correlation between strategy use and motivation. It also shows consistent
results when focus group students’ strategy use, motivation questionnaire
scores and their interview replies were compared.
