Factors Influencing the Reading Comprehension of Learners
View through CrossRef
Reading comprehension is a complex process that involves components, processes, and factors with the aim of finding better ways of improving it among learners. Thus, a deeper understanding of reading comprehension can help develop more effective teaching programs. This paper discusses factors influencing the reading comprehension of learners in a cluster of a district in a large-sized school division in the central Philippines for the school year 2024-2025. Descriptive research was conducted, and a 30-item survey questionnaire was used as a tool to gather data from fifty-eight (58) sixth-grade learners and find out the factors influencing their reading comprehension. The study revealed that the degree of factors influencing reading comprehension of learners in the areas of environmental and socio-economic background motivation, and interest is at a high degree. Moreover, a significant difference was found in the degree of factors influencing reading comprehension of learners in environmental factors when compared according to variable Family Income. It is recommended to make use of the proposed intervention plan formulated in order to improve the reading performance of the learners.
