Summary/Abstract: International educational measurements (e.g. IEA, PISA) show that pupils' sex has an important effect on their school progress and achievements. The present essay studies the text formation skills of Hungarian pupils living in Transylvania and the fact whether their sex influences this or not. Our aim was to find out the boy-girl rate in these schools, the difference between the text formation skills of boys and girls, how much, what, and in what language they read. Does the quantity or the language of their readings influence the text writing skills and progress? Is there a difference between the reading habits of boys and girls?
