Abstract

Past studies and previous research have shown that gender difference is an important factor for affecting students’ achievements. Nevertheless, the gender difference in the literature appreciation ability of high school students has been rarely concerned. This study is seeking to examine whether gender difference exists in literature appreciation ability by analyzing 117 senior-three students from M school – 44 female students and 73 male students. In this research method, arithmetic mean and t-test are quantified for whether there’s a literature appreciation ability’s gender difference in mathematics and statistics. Furthermore, the standard deviation is used to see which gender group’s ability fluctuates more. For results, it shows that there is a mathematical and statistical significance in genders’ literature appreciation abilities, and female students showed greater ability than male students in literature appreciation. Nevertheless, female students’ literature appreciation scores fluctuated more than those of male students. Limitations, implications, and future directions of the research are also discussed in this study.
