The data of this descriptive correlational-study revealed that there is no significant difference in the level of comprehension in silent reading, between males and females. Moreover, in terms of the level of comprehension in oral reading, there is gender difference with females outperforming the males. In the first language, no significant relationship was drawn as both p-values are greater than alpha = 0.05. Interestingly, on socio-economic status,this influences the level of reading comprehension in SR (p-value = 0.000) as the p-value is less than alpha= 0.05. Moreover, the post hoc analysis using the Tukey test showed a significant difference between groupings, for the comprehension level in silent reading, between respondents of high SES and average and low SES with better SES outperforming those with lower SES. Likewise, a significant difference in the level of reading comprehension on SR was also revealed between those with average SES and low SES favoring those who have claimed to belong to average SES. However, There is no significant relationship between the level of comprehension in OR and the variables SES and Parental Involvement (PI) as shown by their respective p-values (0.280, 0.057) which are greater than alpha = 0.05. For the relationship between the dependent variable reading comprehension in SR and the independent variable SES, no significant relationship was drawn as shown by the p-value (0.728) which is greater than alpha = 0.05. Furthermore, for the influence of PI on the level of comprehension of the respondents in SR, a significant relationship was drawn as provided by the p-value (0.004) which is less than alpha = 0.05. Moreover, the relationship is characterized to be a low positive correlation. In addition, there is no significant difference in the level of comprehension in OR across SES.
