LONGITUDINAL STUDY OF THE READING ATTITUDES AND BEHAVIORS OF MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS

Abstract

To investigate the reading attitudes and reading behaviors of middle school students over time, the researchers administered two instruments to the same 164 students early in their sixth, seventh, and eighth grade years. By responding to the Teale‐Lewis Reading Attitude Scales, students reported their general attitude toward reading and the values that they placed upon reading for three distinct purposes: Individual Development, Utilitarian, and Enjoyment. By responding to the Reading Behavior Profile, they reported their current levels of voluntary reading activity.
