Reading and students’ well-being

• Mid Sweden University and Kalmar University have organised studies on reading skills among students in grade 8 in Ekerö, Härnösand, Kristianstad, Nacka, Sollentuna and Tyresö. These studies have included a reading test and a questionnaire where the students have been asked to give information about themselves, their schooling and their motivation. Some of the questions have dealt with the students feeling of well-being in relation to their schools, the school work and their class mates. This data is analysed from the perspective of how students’ well-being and reading test results relate to each other. The data is also further analysed from a perspective of gender, students’ mother tongue and ethnical background.
