National Reading Conference Yearbook, v47 p496-507 1998

Examines 19 preservice teachers' perceptions of themselves as readers. Finds that students with negative views of themselves as readers worked diligently to facilitate student engagement with text, while some of the self-proclaimed avid readers took a more traditional text-based approach to literature discussions.
