Impact of Reading Habits of Students on the Self- regulated Learning at University Level

Abstract

    The ability to read is the key to gaining knowledge. Reading in today's world is dependent on a person's ability to properly and effectively perceive an electronic or printed material. The constructive features and self-motivating talents of self-regulated pupils help to set them apart from other peers. The aim of the study was to explore the impact of reading habits of students on the self-regulated learning at university level. All the public sector higher educational institutions were the population of the study. The data were collected using a random sampling technique from three hundred and fifty students from the University of Lahore, Sargodha Campus. The self-developed questionnaire, "Reading Habits and Self-regulated Learning Survey," was used. The data were analyzed using Pearson r analysis. The findings revealed a strong positive correlation between self-regulated learning and students’ study habits. The findings examined that self-regulated learning strategies promote reading skills among students. The researchers recommended that self-regulated learning may be promoted among students for better reading comprehension. There were mixed results of the relationship of different indicators of students' reading habits with self-regulated learning.
