Abstract
It is important for teacher candidates to develop individuals’ reading and critical thinking habit. The purpose of this study is to identify the relationship between elementary teacher candidates’ disposition of critical thinking and attitudes towards reading habit. Exploratory correlational method that is one of the correlational research methods was adopted in the study. The participants were 217 3rd year students studying at the Elementary Education Department of Pamukkale University in the 2013-2014 academic year. The data collection instruments included the California Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory adapted to Turkish by Kökdemir (2003), and the Teacher Candidates’ Attitudes towards Reading Habit Scale developed by Susar Kirmizi (2012). The results revealed a low, positive and significant relationship between elementary teacher candidates’ tendencies on critical thinking scores and their attitudes toward reading habit.
