Abstract
This study attempted to find out the effectiveness of PQ4R Strategy in the development of reading comprehension among Grade 7 students. It also sought to determine the results of conducting pre-test and post-test in reading comprehension in terms of identifying fact and opinion, making inferences, getting the main idea, and self-questioning. Thus, it also sought to determine if there is a significant difference in the reading comprehension of respondents before and after the implementation of PQ4R Strategy. This study employed the experimental method of research which made use of pre-test and post-test as the main gathering tools. The respondents of the study were selected 83 Grade 7 students at Malvar School of Arts and Trade for the school year 2022-2023. From the findings, it revealed that the student-respondents got an overall mean of 3.80 with a standard deviation of 1.60 in identifying fact and opinion, overall mean of 4.37 with a standard deviation of 2.21 in making inference, overall mean of 3.11 with a standard deviation of 1.47 in getting the main idea, and overall mean of 2.58 with a standard deviation of 1.65 in self-questioning. Furthermore, it revealed that the post-test scores of the respondents in reading comprehension are higher than their pre-test scores. The null hypothesis stating that “There is no significant difference in the reading comprehension of the respondents before and after the implementation of PQ4R strategy.” is rejected. There is a significant difference in the reading comprehension of the respondents before and after the implementation of PQ4R strategy.
