Abstract:
The current study examined the use of reading strategies in connection to reading comprehension success. 38 graduate students, who did not consider English their first language participated in this study. The participants’ vocabulary knowledge, word reading fluency, decoding, and working memory were measured. Think-alouds captured strategy use and reading comprehension was assessed through questions about the text. Results indicate that vocabulary knowledge was correlated to reading comprehension success but word fluency, decoding and working memory were not. A factor analysis on strategy use revealed that three factors emerged to account for unique variance in reading comprehension performance. These factors were text analysis and integration (text structure, vocabulary, connecting and predicting), meaning extraction (summarizing and inferencing), and extrapolating beyond the text II (visualizing and elaborative inferencing). Therefore, reading strategy use predicted reading comprehension success beyond vocabulary knowledge and working memory.
