Abstract EN

This study explores the reading rates and preferences of student teachers practicing multiple intelligences in the Science and Physical Education (PE) Department at Sultan Qaboos University.

.

It aims to identify reading rates and preferences in terms of specialization, gender, academic achievement and academic year of study.

The study was conducted on (307) undergraduate students.

For the purpose of the study, two questionnaires were developed including a survey on multiple intelligences and a reading preferences questionnaire.

Results indicate that logical-mathematical, musical and naturalist intelligence approaches were the most practiced.

The general reading rate (2.38 out of 5.00) was found within the 'rare' reading rate.

There is a statistically significant increase in the reading rate of bodily-kinesthetic and logicalmathematical students compared to the rest of the sample.

Furthermore, a statistical significant increase was found in the performance of science student teachers, higher academic achievers, and third and fourth year students.

There were no statistically significant differences between females and males.

Finally, religious and scientific books, novels, scientific and sports sites were found to be the most read materials in most groups.
