dc.description.abstractThis study entitled “Reading Comprehension Ability of the Tamang Students” firstly, aimed at finding out the level of reading comprehension ability of Tamang students. Secondly, it had the objective to compare and contrast the proficiency of students in terms of seen and unseen texts. I used non-random purposive sampling procedure to select the forty Tamang students studying in grade 9 in different 5 schools in Dolakha district. I used test as the research tool including seen and unseen passages following with a number of items of questions. The collected data have been presented in tables; and analyzed and discussed quantitatively in mean, standard deviation and z-test. The major findings showed that the Tamang students’ overall reading comprehension was ‘average’. Similarly, they had slightly better performance in seen passages in comparison to unseen ones. The level of reading comprehension ability of Tamang boy and girl students was same in both seen and unseen passages. The students scored the highest average mark in ‘True/False item of question’ in both seen and unseen passages whereas they achieved the lowest average mark in ‘Writing a book review item’ in seen passage and ‘Answering the questions’ in unseen passages. The thesis consists of five chapters. The first chapter is an introductory chapter. It includes background of the study, statement of the problem, objectives of the study, research questions, significance of the study, delimitations of the study and operational definition of the key terms. The second chapter deals with review of theoretical literature, review of related empirical literature, implications of the review for the study and conceptual framework of the study. The third chapter deals with methodology which incorporates research design and method, population, sample and sampling strategy, field/area of the study, data collection tools and techniques, data collection procedures and data analysis and interpretation procedure. The fourth chapter deals with the rigorous analysis of data and interpretation of results along with the summary of the findings.
