How the Reading for Understanding Initiative’s Research Complicates the Simple View of Reading Invoked in the Science of Reading
Advocates of the science of reading have invoked the simple view of reading (SVR) to justify an approach that foregrounds decoding in early reading instruction. The SVR, which describes comprehension as the product of decoding and listening comprehension, also served as the primary theoretical model underlying the Reading for Understanding (RfU) initiative. Research funded under the RfU initiative included direct examinations of the validity of t…
Constructing Subscores That Add Validity
Prior research suggests that subscores from a single achievement test seldom add value over a single total score. Such scores typically correspond to subcontent areas in the total content domain, but content subdomains might not provide a sound basis for subscores. Using scores on an inferential reading comprehension test from 625 third, fourth, and fifth graders, two new methods of creating subscores were explored. Three subscores were based on …
Speed and time, texts and sentences
The objective of this study was to explore the relationship of reading rate to reading comprehension using different scales for reading rate. Although fluency research typically measures reading rate as speed (in words-per-minute) using whole texts as the text unit of interest, reading research investigating situation models measures rate as time (in seconds) using individual sentences as the unit of interest. The current study compared the predi…
