Extensive Reading (ER)
College & University Education
Research-Oriented Short Presentation
The presenters used the online extensive reading (ER) system Xreading to gather data on the relationship between ER words read and subsequent TOEIC reading scores across three cohorts of first-year tertiary Japanese students (N=714). Despite a clearly observable positive correlation between TOEIC performance and extensive reading, careful analysis suggests that this association may, in fact, be the result of a third, mediating variable.
