Abstract: In this study, structural equation modeling was used to examine the effect of gifted students’ attitudes toward reading on their reading habits and writing tendencies. The study group for this research, in which the correlational survey model was used, was formed with the convenience sampling method. The study was conducted with 134 gifted students attending the Science and Art Center in the 5th, 6th and 7th grades. Attitude Toward Reading Scale, Secondary School Book Reading Habit Scale and Writing Disposition Scale were used to collect the research data. The data construed using the structural equation modeling were processed with SPSS 24.0 and AMOS 22.0 statistical package software. As a result of the research, it was determined that the hypothesis model was valid and attitude toward reading positively affected reading habits and writing disposition. It was concluded that attitude toward reading explained 75% of reading habit and 31% of writing disposition.
