Relation between Reading Comprehension, Vocabulary, Reading Pleasure, and Reading Frequency.

van Leeuwe, Jan; Aarnoutse, Cor

Educational Research and Evaluation (An International Journal on Theory and Practice), v4 n2 p143-66 Jun 1998

A longitudinal study of 363 elementary school students over five years investigated the degree to which reading comprehension, vocabulary, reading pleasure, and reading frequency later in life can be predicted and the way that path models and common factor models explain these relationships. Linkages among these factors are explored. (SLD)
