Studies have shown that reading difficulties and low achievement motivation have a negative impact on the learning outcomes of students. This research investigated the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in improving the reading skills and achievement motivation of 70 primary school students in Southeast Nigeria. The experimental group received CBT treatment. The control group received normal classroom instruction. Data were analyzed using a 2 × 3 mixed design. The results showed that CBT improved students’ reading skills and achievement motivation. Thus, CBT can be used in the treatment of reading difficulties and low achievement motivation among primary school students.
