Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui harga diri siswa kelas tujuh SMP Negeri 10 Tapung Kabupaten Kampar, untuk mengetahui pemahaman membaca siswa kelas tujuh SMP Negeri 10 Tapung Kabupaten Kampar, dan juga untuk mengetahui apakah ada hubungan yang signifikan atau tidak antara harga diri siswa dengan pemahaman membaca siswa kelas tujuh SMP Negeri 10 Tapung Kabupaten Kampar.
