Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2023, Vol 10, Issue 1
Abstract
This study explored the impact of Project PRIME (Polishing Reading Intensively through Monitoring and Evaluation), an intervention program designed to improve reading comprehension skills among pre-determined learners. The participants were randomly assigned to either the intervention group, which received Project PRIME, or the control group, which received regular instruction. The study utilized pre-test and post-test control group design measures to assess the impact of the intervention on reading comprehension skills. The results revealed that the implementation of Project PRIME had a positive effect on the reading comprehension skills of pre-determined learners. The intervention group demonstrated a significant improvement in their reading comprehension scores compared to the control group, indicating the effectiveness of Project PRIME in enhancing reading skills. The level of significance for the intervention group was highly significant, indicating a substantial difference between the pre-test and post-test scores. In contrast, the control group did not show a significant improvement in reading comprehension skills without the intervention. Furthermore, when controlling for pre-test scores, the experimental group exhibited significantly higher reading comprehension performance compared to the control group. This suggests that Project PRIME had a positive impact on the reading skills of pre-determined learners, even when considering their initial reading abilities. The study identified several strengths of Project PRIME, including the use of interactive and culturally relevant materials, as well as providing opportunities for practice and application. These findings align with previous research emphasizing the benefits of incorporating students' cultural backgrounds and implementing student-centered approaches to enhance reading comprehension skills.
