Description - Reading Comprehension Difficulties by Cesare Cornoldi
Problems with decoding, dyslexia and language disorders have attracted more interest from researchers than have specific comprehension problems and have occupied more room in specialized journals. Normal reading comprehension has also been a favourite with researchers. However, scarce interest has been paid to subjects who have comprehension difficulties. This book is an attempt to remedy this situation. In so doing, this volume answers the following questions: does a reading comprehension problem exist in schools?; how important and widespread is the problem?; is the problem specific?; how can a reading comprehension difficulty be defined and identified?; does the "syndrome" have a single pattern or can different subtypes be identified?; what are the main characteristics associated with a reading comprehension difficulty?; when can other well-identified problems add to our understanding of reading comprehension difficulties?; which educational strategies are effective in preventing and treating reading comprehension difficulties?; and what supplementary information can we get from an international perspective?
