Validation of the Questionnaire on Reading Preferences and Habits of Primary School Pupils at Risk of Social Exclusion Ramos Navas-Parejo, Magdalena Cáceres Reche, María Del Pilar Marín Marín, José Antonio Victoria Maldonado, Juan José Questionnaire Reading Students at risk Reading habits Reading promotion ICT The acquisition of the habit of reading is a fundamental issue for primary school pupils, as it contributes to the integral education of the person and, in some cases, may be essential for pupils to remain in the educational system and to escape social exclusion. In order to carry out research on reading promotion in socially disadvantaged contexts, it is necessary to have an appropriate instrument for these profiles. The aim of this work was to adapt and validate a questionnaire on reading habits and preferences that is suitable for pupils in the first cycle of primary education who are at risk of social exclusion. To this end, a mixed qualitative and quantitative methodology was used to analyse the content validity and the construct validity, which obtained, as a result, a high correlation between the variables, an appropriate factor analysis, a high overall reliability of the instrument and, in general, an adequate model to correctly explain the data of the proposed structure. We concluded by obtaining a 22-item questionnaire that is divided into five factors and that will be appropriate for determining the reading habits and tastes of disadvantaged pupils, as well as the influence of families and schools in the task of encouraging reading. 2022-06-22T10:01:34Z 2022-06-22T10:01:34Z 2022-05-09 info:eu-repo/semantics/article Ramos-Navas-Parejo, M...
