This non-causal research was conducted towards 217 elementary school
teachers and 141 respondents in Central Jakarta. The data gathering process
was done using a questionnaire with a Likert scale model.
The result of this research shows that: First, there is a positive relationsip
between students’ reading interest (X1) and education quality (Y) with the
regression equation Ŷ = 116,25 + 0,28X1with a correlation coefficient value of
0,320 and a coefficient of determiniation value of 0,102 = 10,2% significant
towards α = 0,05, meaning that there is a relationship between student’s
reading interest and education quality. The other 10,2% is influenced by other
variables. Second, there is a positif relationship between study motivation (X2)
and education quality with the regression equation Ŷ = 114,26 + 0,38X2, with
a correlation coefficient value of 0,225 and a coefficient of determinitation
value of 0,05 = 5% significant towards α = 0,05, meaning that there is a
relationship between study motivation and education quality. The other 5% is
influenced by other variables. Third, there is a positive relationship between
eduation quality based on interest in reading and study motivation with the
regression equationŶ = 85,238 + 0,251X1 + 0,277X2 with a correlation
coefficient value of 0,207 and a coefficient of determination value 0,129 =
12,9%, meaning that there is a relationship between students’ interest in
reading and study motivation combined with education quality as large as
12,9% while the rest is influenced by other variables.
