| contents | An Examination of Attitude Development toward Reading in Grades One through Six. Parker, Anita Paradis, Edward Age Differences Attitude Change Attitude Measures Elementary Education Reading Attitudes Reading Habits Reading Interests Reading Research Recreational Reading Sex Differences To ascertain whether reading attitudes changed as boys and girls progressed through the grades, a reading attitude inventory was administered to 234 children in grades one through six. Items in the inventory were grouped into the following categories: free reading in the classroom, organized reading in the classroom, reading at the library, reading at home, other recreational reading, and general reading. Results indicated no attitude changes from grades one through three nor between grades five and six. The difference found between grades four and five appeared attributable to a more positive attitude toward nonclassroom type reading in grade five. Sex differences approaching statistical significance favored girls; however, no interactions between sex and grade level were reported. (Author/HOD) |
