L2 Reading Fluency and L2 Reading Self-Efficacy #590

While L2 reading fluency researchers have mainly focused on the linguistic effects of reading fluency treatments, very few studies have examined how gains in reading fluency impact learners’ affect, such as their self-efficacy in L2 reading. Thus, this study focuses on the effects of timed reading, repeated oral reading, and extensive reading on reading fluency while concurrently examining changes in L2 reading self-efficacy among Japanese university students over a one-year period.
