Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2023, Vol 12, Issue 4

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the reading comprehension difficulties experienced by Grade VI learners and their impact on academic performance during the school year 2022-2023. Specifically, it sought to identify the level of reading comprehension among the respondents in terms of literal, inferential, and evaluative understanding, assess their academic performance in core subjects such as English, Science, and Mathematics, and determine the significant relationship between their reading comprehension difficulties and academic performance. A descriptive research design was utilized, and the sample consisted of 139 respondents selected from schools in the Montevista District. Data was collected using a survey questionnaire, and the analysis involved Pearson's correlation coefficient. The study's findings underscore the importance of a supportive household environment for a child's overall growth and development, with implications for school administrators, division superintendents, teachers, and parents.
