Özet
This study compares home literacy environments in the United States and Turkiye. The research process involved 28 parents living in the United States and 42 parents living in Turkiye. Data were collected through a questionnaire developed by the researchers. The questionnaire was distributed to participants via social media, and the responses were analyzed using content analysis. The findings revealed that: (1) parents in Turkiye engage in shared reading activities more frequently. (2) The structure of home literacy environments, the design of these environments, time allocated, and efforts to encourage children's literacy showed no significant differences between the two countries. However, findings regarding the diversity of home literacy resources indicated that U.S. parents utilized a wider variety of materials. (3) U.S. parents reported engaging in a broader range of comprehension-oriented activities and demonstrated more diverse planning for home literacy activities. (4) Parents' memories of their childhood home literacy experiences revealed notable similarities. All findings were discussed within the framework of the Home Literacy Model.
