Understanding Multiple Profiles of Reading Attitudes among Adolescents
Jang, Bong Gee; Henretty, Dawnelle
Middle School Journal, v50 n3 p26-35 2019
In this article, the authors propose a model of four attitudinal profiles including both purpose (academic and recreational) and medium (print and digital): (1) recreational digital learning/print averse reluctant readers, (2) avid digital readers, (3) avid print readers, and (4) digital learning reluctant readers. We drew these four profiles of reading attitudes from our previous research where we analyzed survey data from approximately 5,000 middle school students in the USA. We present prototypical adolescent reader from each profile guided by Valencia and Buly. Further, we suggested effective instructional practices that fit into each profile of adolescent readers.
