It explores the evolution of literary education in Spain and its alignment with the Reading Responses paradigm. The LRQ, adapted across various locations, is validated in Spanish through Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses. The research analyzes reading responses in dimensions like Leisure Escape, Insight, Empathy, Story‐driven Reading, Concern with Author, Imagery Vividness, and Rejecting Literary Values. Findings reveal widespread indifference and rejection toward literary reading among the adolescents, along with a clear disapproval of the historicist‐authorial approach to literary education. Significant variations were identified based on students' gender, enrollment in a bilingual program, and notably, the number of books read per year. This underscores the significance of introducing literary reading practices in secondary education that align with the leisure preferences of adolescents, encouraging personal and experiential engagement with texts. This could materialize in the classroom the shift from a historicist to a reader‐centered approach suggested by the current Spanish curriculum. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/S61-23R info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by-nc-nd https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/deed.es 1.5 2024 EDUCATION & EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH 297 / 762 = 0.39 2024 Q2 T2 0.482 2024 Education 2024 Q2 2.3 2024 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Mendoza-Cercadillo, Irene (orcid)0009-0000-0956-0731 Hernández-Heras, Lucía Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-0247-1573 4013 195 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
