Abstract

This study aimed to reveal the relationship between primary school teacher candidates’ writing sensitivity and writing achievement. This quantitative study conducted with the relational survey model consisted of 575 teacher candidates of two public universities. The data about primary school teacher candidates’ writing achievement were collected via Rubric for Written Texts (RWT) with the help of written texts produced by them and the Writing Sensitivity Scale (WSS). According to the findings obtained, primary school teacher candidates had moderate writing sensitivity and writing achievement and there was a statistically significant relationship between writing sensitivity and writing achievement. It can be argued that writing sensitivity and writing achievement significantly differ according to gender, while writing sensitivity does not significantly differ based on year, writing achievement does.
