a. The Mathewson Model
The Mathewson model 1985 involves the affective processes of attitude, motivation, affect, and phys
ical feelings. Mathewson states that “this cognitively mediated influence of affect upon reading may be represented by a decision
process component in the new affective model of reading” p. 845. In the model, physical feelings could influence whether a person continues to read. One possible
decision to read is a good general reading attitude. According to Mathewson: “In addition to attitudes toward reading as a universal good, it is also
possible that attitudes toward the source of reading materials may be important in determining a decision to read. The source of a book or
magazine might be a friend, a teacher, or a club. Thus, the present model incorporates the notion that relevant attitudes toward reading may include
8 attitudes toward the content, format, and form but may also include such attitudes as those toward reading as a universal good and attitudes toward
the source of reading materials. This expanded notion of the range of attitudes, which may influence reading, ensures a broad scope for the
model, but at the same time poses difficult questions for the researcher who might wish to assess the e
ffects of attitude upon reading” p. 847. In this model, Mathewson depicts attitude which may influence attention
and comprehension through the decision process. The secondary component includes recall, reflection, and application. This was important to the model to
depict that students should do more with their reading. Mathewson states , “the
present model thus predicts that the decision component influences the primary and secondary reading processes in the same way. Decision to read, whether
primary or secondary processes are involved, is based on attitude, motivation, affect, and physical feelings” p. 848.
In the first Mathewson‟s model 1994, he depicts how attitude is
developed over time. McKenna, Kear and Ellsworth 1995 explain, PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
