Crowther, Dustin; Holden, Daniel; Urada, Kristen – Language Teaching, 2022
Published in "Language Learning" in 1995, Munro and Derwing's* investigation of foreign accent, comprehensibility, and intelligibility in second language (L2) speech instigated significant change in L2 pronunciation research (Levis, 2020). A key finding was that despite the presence of a foreign accent, listeners could indeed comprehend…

Leslie Lyn Huscher – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Over the past several years, the need for identification and implementation of effective reading comprehension strategies for students diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has come to the forefront of educational research, especially as the prevalence of this population continues to rise. It has been well documented, a large percentage of…

Shannon M. Smith – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Chemistry is a difficult subject for many students. The content is challenging, and students often enter chemistry classes with preconceived ideas about chemical phenomena which may or may not align with scientific ideas (Gabel, 1999; Johnstone, 1991, 1993; Nakhleh, 1992). The purpose of this study was to understand high school students'…

Reed, Marnie; Jones, Tamara – TESOL Press, 2021
Teaching listening means more than just giving students listening activities and checking for understanding--it means teaching them how to listen. "Listening in the Classroom" takes promising research findings and theory and turns them into practical teaching ideas that help develop listening proficiency.

Kim, Young-Suk Grace; Petscher, Yaacov; Uccelli, Paola; Kelcey, Benjamin – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2020
Two widely studied language skills in relation to reading comprehension are listening comprehension skill and academic language proficiency. Although their constituent skills and theoretical accounts of how they are related to reading comprehension share a large overlap, they have been studied in separate lines of work. In this study, we…

Ladislao Salmerón; Lidia Altamura; Mari Carmen Blanco-Gandía; Amelia Mañá; Sandra Montagud; Mario Romero; Cristina Vargas; Laura Gil – Journal of Research in Reading, 2025
Background: The idea that screens 'stole children's focus' and that reading books, in contrast, stimulates selective attention is theoretically complex and has largely been ignored in empirical tests. Research has identified positive associations between reading habits and various dimensions of attention in children, but most research is…

HyeJin Hwang; Panayiota Kendeou; Kristen L. McMaster – Grantee Submission, 2025
Successful comprehension is only possible when children draw inferences about ideas implicit or missing in discourse. Supporting inference-making with explicit instruction must start early given its importance in comprehension and knowledge development. However, students who experience difficulties with early reading skills often do not receive…

Callula Killingly; Linda J. Graham; Haley Tancredi; Pamela Snow – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2025
Reading comprehension is contingent on both oral language comprehension and word-level reading ability, skills that are thought to be intrinsically related in the early school years. However, while previous studies examining bidirectional relationships among oral vocabulary and reading development have generally found an association between word…

Ivar Bråten; Ymkje E. Haverkamp; Natalia Latini; Helge I. Strømsø – Journal of Research in Reading, 2025
Background: A common approach to assessing students' integrated understanding of multiple documents is to analyse their post-reading written reports. This study investigated to what extent writing self-efficacy directly and indirectly (via integrative processing) contributed to multiple-document comprehension as assessed with an integrative…

This study examined the psychometric properties of two common frameworks for scoring retell data (i.e., clause- and idea unit-based methods) among 86 third- through fifth-grade students with dyslexia. At the beginning and end of the school year, students read two grade-level R-CBM probes (one orally and one silently) and engaged in a retell…

Sylvia M. Savvidou; Irene-Anna Diakidoy; Lucia Mason – Reading Research Quarterly, 2025
The present study examined how argument type (science based vs. personal case based), belief consistency (belief consistent vs. inconsistent) and reading goals (read to evaluate vs. read to learn) influence comprehension and trustworthiness evaluations for claim-conflicting multiple texts. Undergraduates read four conflicting texts about the…

Andriana L. Christofalos; Nicole M. Arco; Madison Laks; Heather Sheridan – Discourse Processes: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2025
Removing interword spacing has been shown to disrupt lower-level oculomotor processes and word identification during text reading. However, the impact of these disruptions on higher-level processes remains unclear. To examine the influence of spacing on inferential processing, we monitored eye movements while participants read spaced and unspaced…

Malin Dahlby-Skoog; Tamara Kalandadze; Eva Karltorp; Björn Lyxell; Ulrika Löfkvist – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2025
Purpose: There is solid evidence that an early age at cochlear implantation, which reduces the period of auditory deprivation, positively impacts early spoken language development. However, there is an urgent need for more research to understand the long-term effects of early implantation on higher linguistic skills, such as metaphor…
