Abstract

Despite the close relatedness of the factors for reading motivation and book selection, few researchers have examined these factors together in a single study. To deal with this dearth of research, this study was designed to explore factors of motivation for reading and book selection of high school students comprehensively. The authors conducted in-depth interviews with fifteen high school students and analyzed their responses in order to identify the meaningful factors. The findings of this study reveal the five major factors: (1) characteristics of information sources, (2) school and learning environment, (3) individual factors, (4) home environment, and (5) social environment. In particular, the five types of factors seem to have a combined effects on reading motivation and book selection. The findings also suggest that one's reading motivation is a prerequisite for his/her book selection; however, the reading motivation does not always lead to book selection. The results of this study may deepen our understanding of reading behavior of high school students, which can be used in reading instruction and designing new programs.

독서동기 유발요인과 도서선택 요인은 서로 밀접하게 연관되어 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고 이러한 요인들을 포괄적으로 식별한 연구는 거의 없는 편이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 고등학생들의 독서동기 및 도서선택에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 요인을 통합적으로 식별하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 인문계 고등학교에 재학 중인 고등학생 15명을 대상으로 심층 면담을 실시하였고, 이를 바탕으로 독서동기 및 도서선택에 미치는 요인들을 분석하였다. 연구결과, 고등학생들의 독서 행태에 영향을 주는 요인의 유형은 정보원의 특성, 개인적 요인, 가정환경 요인, 학교 및 학습환경 요인, 사회환경 요인으로 나타났다. 특히 이러한 요인들은 복합적으로 작용하여 독서동기나 도서선택에 영향을 줄 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 더 나아가 독서동기는 도서선택의 선행조건임을 알 수 있었고, 독서동기의 유발이 도서선택을 보장하는 것은 아닌 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 식별된 각 요인들은 고등학생들의 독서행태를 보다 깊이 이해하여 독서지도에 활용하고 새로운 프로그램을 개발하는데 도움이 될 것이다.
