Effect of Value Analysis Discussions on Students' Political Attitudes and Reading Comprehension.

Hahn, Carole L.; Avery, Patricia G.

Theory and Research in Social Education, v13 n2 p47-60 Sum 1985

Secondary students who regularly discussed controversial issues using a value analysis approach showed gains on the measures of political confidence, political interest, and social integration, but not on political trust. The value analysis discussions did not affect students' reading comprehension. (Author/RM)
