“…In our study, four hundred and nineteen emails were sent with sixty-seven surveys completed, a return rate of sixteen percent. This return rate was within expected norms of similar teacher surveys using "cold calling" or anonymous solicitations through district-assigned emails (Hazlett, Johnson & Hayn, 2009;Lennon, Smith & Byford, 2014). This population is difficult to reach within targeted return rates and may need to be identified at lower expectations (Groves, et al, 2004).…”

Young Adult Literature Research in the 21st CenturyThe study of young adult literature (YAL) as both an art form and teaching tool is in its infancy. Barely 50 years old, this emerging genre began to establish a presence in the canon of both classical and popular literature. As a developing field of inquiry, however, YAL struggles for legitimacy and prestige. The purpose of this article is to issue a call to educational researchers to shift the focus of current YAL research from teaching the content (text analysis research) to that of student learning in the classroom (empirical research). Doing so would increase the legitimacy and influence of the genre and establish Judith A.

One of the challenges faced by language teachers is promoting students’ reading for pleasure while also helping them confront world issues. Introducing Young Adult Literature in the EFL classroom can be of great help in this sense. However, it is not easy to select the most appropriate texts and topics, as teenage students’ reading preferences are still not well known. Against this background, we administered an online questionnaire to Austrian, Italian, and Hungarian students to explore their reading preferences and habits. In this article, we report the results of this questionnaire and draw some pedagogical implications.
