摘要

本研究基于全球PIRLS阅读能力测试和调查问卷，对新加坡7岁、9岁和12岁双语背景华族学生的华文阅读能力展开调查。研究者对学生华文PIRLS测试成绩进行ANOVA-Tukey多重数据比较，并将学生问卷调查的结果结合阅读测试成绩做OLS回归分析，以探讨各种阅读教学策略和方法，对不同年龄、不同家庭语言背景学生之华文阅读能力的影响。结果显示，9岁中英均衡学生的华文阅读能力发展受到中英双语的干扰，但12岁时则不存在这一问题；英文为主学生的华文阅读能力发展在其9岁以后出现滞后现象。研究同样表明，不同阅读教学策略和方法，对不同语言背景学生的阅读能力有迥异的影响，因此其使用方式和适用范围也应有所差别。

Based on PIRLS reading competency assessment and questionnaire, the paper investigates the Chinese reading competency of bilingual Chinese students in Singapore. The research selected 7, 9 and 12 years old students as objects. ANOVA-Tukey method was employed to make multiple comparisons of students' PIRLS reading test results. OLS regression analysis was also performed to explore the impact of various reading strategies on the Chinese reading competency of students of different ages and family language backgrounds. The result shows that for 9-year-old students who use EL and CL equally at home, the development of their reading competency is interfered by both languages, whereas the 12-year-olds do not have this problem. For students mainly using EL, their Chinese reading competency lags behind the other groups after the age of 9. In addition, different types of reading strategies and methods have diverse effects on the reading competency of students with various language backgrounds. Therefore, these strategies should be distinguished in terms of their ways of use and ranges of application.
