The text of the monograph focuses on the analysis of motivational,
educational and social factors of reading literacy in PISA 2009
research. In PISA 2009 these factors were explored through a student
questionnaire.
The first chapter presents a general outline of the PISA 2009 re-
search and achievements at international level and in Slovenia. PISA cy-
cles, fields of measurement, study population, study sample in Slovenia
and measurement instruments are shown in detail, illustrated and out-
lined are also types of questions in the reading literacy tasks and reading
achievements in Slovenia. The next two chapters describe and explain
the results of PISA 2009 statistical analyses in reading activities, reading
motivation, learning strategies and the characteristics of a learning envi-
ronment based on a pre-analysis of PISA 2009 results, presented in four
publications, »PISA 2009 Results«.
The fourth chapter presents a secondary analysis of the results. The
authors analysed the relationship of some individual and social charac-
teristics of Slovenian students with their reading literacy. In the sample
they included first-year students of four different secondary educational
programs (n = 4250). In analysing the links between the predictors and
reading achievement a two-level linear models have been used. Approxi-
mately 52% of the total variance in students‘ achievements was explained
with the differences between educational programs, about 3% with dif-
ferences between schools within the educational programs and approxi-
mately 8% with differences among students within schools. Among the
latter, the following factors positively predicted reading achievement:
