Abstract (2. Language): 
Reading literature is highly associated with the readers' engagement with the texts and their personal reactions to what they read. Individualized meanings, creation of responses and filling in the gaps facilitate both the comprehension and the reflection upon the text. In addition, the nature of reading literary text emphasizes the need to reflect on personal theories and be aware of the fact that reading literature means discovering not only the text but the self as well. The present study aims to investigate learners' beliefs about analysis of short stories. The goals of the study are (1) to discuss high priority construct of each participant and (2) to investigate whether participants whose high priority constructs showed patterns of change over time also display change in their perception of current self and ideal self. Third-grade learners at English Language Teaching Department, Faculty of Education, Çukurova University were the participants of the study.

Abstract (Original Language): 
Edebi metinlerin okunması büyük oranda okuyucuların metinle olan etkileşimleri ve okuduklarına verdikleri kişisel tepkilerle bağlantılıdır. Bireysel yorumlar, verilen tepkiler ve metindeki boşlukların doldurulması metnin anlaşılmasını ve metinle ilgili yorumların yapılmasını kolaylaştırır. Buna ek olarak, edebi metinleri okumak, okuyucunun kişisel teorilerini yansıtmasını ve edebi metinleri okumanın sadece metni değil okuyucunun kendisini keşfetmesi gerektiğinin farkına varmasını vurgular. Bu çalışmada ketılımcıların kısa öykü analizi hakkındaki görüşleri araştırılmaktadır. Çalışmanın amaçları (]) her katılımcının kısa öykü analizinde en önemli olarak nitelendirdiği görüşlerin belirlenmesi ve (2) bu görüşlerinde belirtilen zaman aralığında değişiklik olan katılımcıların kendileri ve ideallerindeki etkili okuyucuyla ilgili görüşlerin değişiklik gösterip göstermediğidir. Çalışmaya Çukurova Üniversitesi Eğitim Fakültesi İngiliz. Dili Eğitimi Anabilim Dalı 3. sınıf öğrencileri katılmıştır.
