This study examines the relationship between English reading and writing skills in Japanese high school students, based on reading and writing test scores gathered in 2006. The participants were 68 native Japanese high school students learning English as a Foreign Language (EFL). The correlation between L2 reading and writing test scores is statistically significant (r = .45), and the coefficient of determination is .2025 with L2 reading scores explaining approximately one-fifth (20.25%) of the total variance of L2 writing scores. These results imply some effect of L2 readings skills on the quality of L2 composition in Japanese EFL high school students. 本研究は、2006年に実施した英語読解試験と英語作文試験のデータを基に、英語読解力と英語作文力の相関関係を調査したものである。被験者は、英語を外国語として学習している高等学校3年生であった。両試験得点間には有意な相関関係(r = .45)が認められた。さらに、重回帰分析を行ったところ、読解試験得点が作文試験得点に及ぼしている説明力の割合は20.25 %であった。実験結果は、第一外国語として英語を学習している日本人高校生の英語読解力は、英語作文力に対し、ある一定の影響を与えているということを示唆している。

本研究は、自己評価や他己評価による英作文学習不安に対する影響とthe Second Language Writing Anxiety Inventory (Cheng, 2004)の妥当性を探るのが目的である。分析方法は、293人の日本の高校生を対象に自己評価と他己評価の２グループに分けた後、10日間の間に、5回の英作文作成と生徒評価活動（自己評価か他己評価）を集中的に行った。それぞれの生徒評価活動前後に、高校生の英作文学習不安の因子構造変化のグループ比較を、探索的因子分析を使って行った。結果は、事前の因子構造は自己評価グループと他己評価グループは同様だが、実験後は違いが見られた。しかし、主要因子は、実験前後ともに認知的不安による英作文への回避意識であることは変わりがなかった。本研究が英作文授業の活性化につながる事を示唆したい。 This study examined the effects of self-assessment vs. peer assessment on Japanese high school students’ writing anxiety and the validity of Cheng’s (2004) Second Language Writing Anxiety Inventory (SLWAI). After assignment to either the self-assessment or peer-assessment condition, two groups of Japanese high school students (N=293) participated in a series of five writing and student-assessment sessions over a period of 10 days. An exploratory factor analysis was then conducted on SLWAI data collected before and after these sessions to compare the effects of the writing practice and student assessment type on the factor structure of the two groups’ writing anxiety. The results showed post-treatment factor structure differences that had not been present initially. Nevertheless, the main factor both before and after the treatment sessions was English writing avoidance due to cognitive anxiety. These findings suggest the importance of dealing with learner anxiety to improve English writing instruction.

Reading Interest

English learning involves listening, speaking, reading and writing, and each aspect of them can not be ignored. What matters in improving reading ability is to cultivate English reading interest of high school students at first. Interest is the best teacher, and also an indirect way to improve high school students’ ability of English reading. As a high school student, I put forward some views and opinions on the cultivation of high school students' interest in English reading which are based on my own learning experience. Hoping to help the peers in English reading.
