Abstract

In an attempt to increase reading performance at university level. This study aims at perceiving the experiential determinants of EFL students’ online reading performance. Data were collected from 182 undergraduate students’ self-rated questionnaire based on the assigned Indonesian folklores in English version through the online reading platforms. Data analysis used descriptive statistics and factor analysis. The results showed that EFL students’ reading habits and reading frequencies and trends were very supportive, whilst reading effectiveness and reading for pleasure supported their reading performance. Tests of chi-square’s four variables were statistically significant indicating the proportional majority of online reading activity. Meanwhile, the Principal Components Analysis (PCA) indicated two components and variables under the eigenvalues’ square root. The interpretation of two components was coherent with the pilot results on the online reading readability scale, analyzed the use of positive and negative affect items as undertaken from the pattern and structure matrix for PCA with the Obliging rotation. EFL students’ online reading is engaging accordingly since students accomplished their reading performance based on individual accessibilities and habits to understand the contents of genres. This study concludes that EFL students’ online reading performance has been practically facilitated by the technology devices multiply. Hence, four online reading variables increased EFL students’ reading awareness and performance accordingly.

EFL学生在线阅读的决定因素：从他们选择的民间文学读物中感知

为了提高大学阶段的阅读成绩。本研究旨在了解影响外语学生在线阅读成绩的经验决定因素。数据来自182名本科生的自评问卷，该问卷基于通过在线阅读平台分配的英文版印尼民间传说。数据分析采用描述性统计和因素分析。结果表明，EFL学生的阅读习惯、阅读频率和趋势对他们的阅读表现有很大的支持作用，而阅读效率和快乐阅读则对他们的写作表现有一定的支持作用。卡方四个变量的测试具有统计学意义，表明在线阅读活动的比例占大多数。同时，主成分分析（PCA）指出了特征值平方根下的两个成分和变量。对两个组成部分的解释与在线阅读可读性量表的试点结果一致，分析了从具有倾斜旋转的主成分分析的模式和结构矩阵中使用的积极和消极影响项目。EFL学生的在线阅读也相应地吸引人，因为学生的阅读表现是基于个人理解体裁内容的可及性和习惯。本研究的结论是，技术设备的成倍增加实际上促进了EFL学生的在线阅读表现。因此，四个在线阅读变量相应地提高了EFL学生的阅读意识和表现。
