Marina Klimovich; Tobias Richter – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2024
Mind-wandering during reading is often associated with worse comprehension performance. Research suggests that metacognitive competences (i.e., the knowledge about as well as monitoring and regulation of one's own cognitive processes) are positively related to reading performance and may play a role in the prevalence of mind-wandering. However,…

Rose Brooks; Meesha Warmington; Jenny Thomson – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2025
Vocabulary teaching has traditionally focused on word meanings to aid reading comprehension, however evidence also suggests that vocabulary knowledge influences phonemic awareness and word reading. Vocabulary instruction concentrating on the sound structure of new words alongside meaning (combined sound-meaning vocabulary instruction) improves…

Individuals with aphasia (IWA) often exhibit challenges in single word reading as well as in reading comprehension. Recently, eye-tracking technology has become instrumental in delving deeper into reading behaviors. Specifically, it has illuminated the differences in word reading and comprehension abilities among aphasic English speakers. However,…

Carlson, Sarah E.; Broek, Paul van den; McMaster, Kristen L. – Elementary School Journal, 2022
This study examines factors that influence readers' cognitive processing (i.e., inference generation) and the development of a mental representation of text: comprehension skill and working memory (WM). Elementary students (N = 61) participated in causal questioning conditions with narrative texts to examine text- and knowledge-based inferences…

Fletcher Bowden – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Dyslexia, which affects between 5% and 18% of Americans, is caused by difficulties with phonological processing. This study investigates the impact of an online intervention which remediates phonological processing deficits on functional reading skills such as accuracy, fluency, and comprehension. It also investigates changes to student…

Reese Butterfuss; Kathryn S. McCarthy; Ellen Orcutt; Panayiota Kendeou; Danielle S. McNamara – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2024
Readers often struggle to identify the main ideas in expository texts. Existing research and instruction provide some guidance on how to encourage readers to identify main ideas. However, there is substantial variability in how main ideas are operationalized and how readers are prompted to identify main ideas. This variability hinders…

This study examined the extent to which prior beliefs and reading instructions impacted elements of a reader's mental representation of multiple texts. College students' beliefs about childhood vaccinations were assessed before reading two anti-vaccine and two pro-vaccine texts. Participants in the experimental condition read for the purpose of…

Dennis S. Davis; Jackie E. Relyea; Courtney Samuelson; Becky Huang; Corrie Dobis – Grantee Submission, 2025
To accelerate literacy learning for upper-elementary multilingual children designated as English learners (ML-ELs), teachers need instructional tools that create sustained opportunities for reading and discussing informational texts, examining the language encountered in those texts, and building new content knowledge. To address this need, we…

Stevens, Elizabeth A.; Vaughn, Sharon; House, Lexy; Stillman-Spisak, Stephanie – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2020
This study examined the effects of a small group intervention targeting paraphrasing and text structure instruction on the main idea generation and reading comprehension of students with reading disabilities in Grades 4 and 5. Students (N = 62) were randomly assigned to receive the Tier 2-type intervention or business-as-usual instruction.…

Burns, Matthew K.; Duke, Nell K.; Cartwright, Kelly B. – School Psychology, 2023
Inequality in reading outcomes is perhaps the single greatest social justice issue faced by school psychologists, and school psychologists need a better understanding of reading theory and its application to intervention to better combat the important issue. The present study examined the active view of reading (AVR; Duke & Cartwright, 2021),…
