Abstract

Literacy has been of vital importance in learning in a foreign language, and lots of research have been conducted to investigate the importance of reading comprehension; however, studies on this dealing with gender are limited. Therefore, the purpose of the study is to examine the relationship among reading attitude, reading self-efficacy and reading comprehension of EFL tertiary students based on gender difference. A convenient sampling is used to draw data from 208 respondents ranging form the age of 19 to 24 years old using questionnaires and a reading comprehension test. This is a correlational study (Creswell, 2008) employing a multi-group path analysis. The result of analysis showed a pattern of relationships based on gender difference among reading attitude, reading self-efficacy and reading comprehension. The study has significant impacts for EFL reading comprehension by showing prediction of EFL reading comprehension achievement from reading self-efficacy and reading attitude on the basis of gender difference.

Abstract

A Grounded Theory was employed to design a theoretical model for explaining a phenomenon of low academic performance among a minority group at Urban college, henceforth referring to as Indonesian Eastern Students.  15 college students were purposively selected to take a semi-structured interview focus group about perspectives, experiences and insights that might hinder minority students in academic performance, putting a limelight on how they constructed self-identity through social interaction on and off campus. Through social justice perspective, this research finding offered theoretical framework to improve student performance in academics, to reduce the gap of educational disparity and foster inclusive education in Indonesia. DOI: 10.26905/enjourme.v4i2.4311
