Individual Differences in the Cognitive Processes of Reading: II. Text-Level Processes.

Stanovich, Keith E.

Journal of Learning Disabilities, v15 n9 p549-54 Nov 1982

The literature on individual differences in cognitive processes that operate at the text level is reviewed. Poor readers display comprehension deficits independent of word-decoding skill, due to deficient syntactic abilities and to more general metacognitive strategies. The general conclusions from this review and from Part One (ED 150 706) are discussed. (Author)
