Helge I. Strømsø – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2024
In this study, I investigated the print exposure and website exposure of undergraduates in relation to their scores on a text comprehension test. Print exposure was measured with a national version of the author recognition test, whereas a new website recognition test was developed to measure students' exposure to texts on the internet. The…

Pickren, Sage E.; Stacy, Maria; Del Tufo, Stephanie N.; Spencer, Mercedes; Cutting, Laurie E. – Reading Research Quarterly, 2022
In the current study, we examined relations between text features (e.g., word concreteness, referential cohesion) and reading comprehension using multilevel logistic models. The sample was 158 native English-speaking students between 8 years, 8 months and 11 years, 2 months of age with a wide range of reading ability. In line with the simple view…

Winchell, Adam; Lan, Andrew; Mozer, Michael – Cognitive Science, 2020
When engaging with a textbook, students are inclined to highlight key content. Although students believe that highlighting and subsequent review of the highlights will further their educational goals, the psychological literature provides little evidence of benefits. Nonetheless, a student's choice of text for highlighting may serve as a window…

Naylor, Jamie S.; Sanchez, Christopher A. – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2018
Prior research has suggested that episodes of mind wandering not only negatively impact text comprehension but also are associated with fluctuations in reading behavior. However, these studies typically do not account for differences in the fundamental nature of the text itself, namely, whether it is narrative or expository in structure. As much…

Guo, Daibao; Zhang, Shuai; Wright, Katherine Landau; McTigue, Erin M. – AERA Open, 2020
Although convergent research demonstrates that well-designed graphics can facilitate readers' understanding of text, there are select situations where graphics have been shown to have no effect on learners' overall text comprehension. Therefore, the current meta-analytic study examined 39 experimental studies published between 1985 and 2018…

Seok, Soonhwa; DaCosta, Boaventura – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2017
Gender differences between the reading of digital and printed text were explored in this study. Predictors of digital propensity were investigated along with gender differences in the context of digital propensity and perceptions and preferences toward the reading of digital and printed text. Findings strengthened results reported in existing…

Kuperman, Victor; Matsuki, Kazunaga; Van Dyke, Julie A. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2018
The present research presents a novel method for investigating how characteristics of texts (words, sentences, and passages) and individuals (verbal and general cognitive skills) jointly influence eye-movement patterns over the time-course of reading, as well as comprehension accuracy. Fifty-one proficient readers read passages of varying…

Compton, Donald L.; Pearson, P. David – Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2016
This special issue of "JREE" ["Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness"] features studies from three of the teams (Barnes, Stuebing, Fletcher, Barth, & Francis; Language and Reading Research Consortium, Arthur, & Davis; LaRusso et al.) supported by the Institute of Education Sciences--Reading for Understanding…

Clinton, Virginia; Carlson, Sarah E.; Seipel, Ben – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2016
Words can be informative linguistic markers of psychological constructs. The purpose of this study is to examine associations between word use and the process of making meaningful connections to a text while reading (i.e., inference generation). To achieve this purpose, think-aloud data from third-fifth grade students (N = 218) reading narrative…

Goedecke, Patricia J.; Dong, Daqi; Shi, Genghu; Feng, Shi; Risko, Evan; Olney, Andrew M.; D'Mello, Sidney K.; Graesser, Arthur C. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2015
Engagement during reading can be measured by the amount of time readers invest in the reading process. It is hypothesized that disengagement is marked by a decrease in time investment as compared with the demands made on the reader by the text. In this study, self-paced reading times for screens of text were predicted by a text complexity score…

Van Horne, Sam; Russell, Jae-eun; Schuh, Kathy L. – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2016
Researchers have more often examined whether students prefer using an e-textbook over a paper textbook or whether e-textbooks provide a better resource for learning than paper textbooks, but students' adoption of mark-up tools has remained relatively unexamined. Drawing on the concept of Innovation Diffusion Theory, we used educational data mining…

Emmick, Jill R.; Cihon, Traci M.; Eshleman, John W. – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2010
The study examined the effects of textual prompt fading on the acquisition of intraverbals in 3 individuals with developmental disabilities. An alternating treatments design was used to assess the two independent variables. The first independent variable was transfer of stimulus control without component skill fluency. The second independent…

Vieira, Edward T., Jr.; Grantham, Susan – Reading Psychology, 2011
This study examined how global locus of control influences children's reading engagement or reading involvement and interest in stories. It is based on locus of control, interest, and dual information processing theories. One hundred and seventy students from schools in the northeastern United States, ages 9 to 12, participated. They completed a…

Todaro, Stacey Ann – ProQuest LLC, 2010
Inferences are important because not everything in the text is explicit. Therefore, the reader must generate inferences that fill in "missing" information. Various factors can influence inference processes, including those that are related to the text and reader. Moreover, these two factors are likely to interact in highly complex ways,…

Allaire, Stéphane; Thériault, Pascale; Gagnon, Vincent; Lalancette, Evelyne – Canadian Journal of Learning and Technology, 2013
This study documents to what extent writing on a blog in a networked learning environment could influence the affective variables of elementary-school students' writing. The framework is grounded more specifically in theory of self-determination (Deci & Ryan, 1985), relationship to writing (Chartrand & Prince, 2009) and the transactional…
