CRITICAL READING ABILITY IN A PREDOMINANTLY BLACK INSTITUTION: AN INVESTIGATION ACROSS CLASS LEVELS
|
|
|
|
Abstract:
The purposes of this investigation were to: (1) Determine the differences in the average performance of freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors at a predominantly Black institution in critical reading. (2) Determine if the instrument, Fallacies in Reading Test (FRT), is reliable and valid for freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors at a predominantly Black institution. ; The data obtained from this study resulted from the administration of the Fallacies in Reading Test (FRT). The test questions dealt with seven reasoning fallacies: appealing to conformity, improper data, stereotyping, false authority, either-or, part-whole, and sexism. The test's readability is approximately on the fourth grade level. ; The population for the study consisted of 501 students from a predominantly Black university with an approximately even distribution of students in each classification. ; The results were analyzed by performing a factor analysis using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) (Nie, Hull, Jenkins, Steinbrenner, and Brent, 1975) and by using a One-Way Analysis of Variance Test (ANOVA) at the.05 level. ; There are no significant differences among the mean scores of freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors. The Fallacies in Reading Test (FRT) is reliable and valid for freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors at a predominantly Black institution. ; Since the Fallacies in Reading Test (FRT) was determined to be reliable and valid, it may possibly be useful as a diagnostic and instructional tool for colleges and universities. Because there were no significant differences in the critical reading ability among freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors, there appears to be a need for more emphasis on improving the critical reading skills of students attending traditionally Black colleges. ; Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 48-12, Section: A, page: 3085. ; Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Florida State University, 1987.
