It investigates whether and when one mode is superior to the other for comprehension as children develop, independent of reading ability levels. One hundred and seventy three children in first through seventh grades orally and silently read…

Hidi and Renninger (2006) have proposed a four-phase model of situational interest that suggests how activities involving…
