- Abstract
- In this study 2867 Dutch speaking Belgian children from regular primary school classes from grade 1 to 6 were assessed on reading comprehension measuring the following subskills: understanding language on sentence level (verbal comprehension on micro level), inferencing within paragraphs (interpretation on meso level), inferencing within the complete text (interpretation on macro level), inferencing and predicting after reading the text (extrapolation) and memory. Results show that the cognitive profile of poor comprehensive readers and of children with dyslexia differs from the comprehensive reading profile of children in the control group.
