“…Previous studies using various methodologies have shown that good and poor comprehenders differ in the type, frequency, and accuracy of their inference making (Cain & Oakhill, ; Cain, Oakhill, Barnes, & Bryant, ; Laing & Kamhi, ; Magliano et al., ) and in the extent and nature of monitoring during reading (Garner & Taylor, ; Yuill & Oakhill, ). Several researchers have reported that better comprehenders generate more inferences than weaker comprehenders (Janssen, Braaksma, & Rijlaarsdam, ; Laing & Kamhi, ; Schellings, Aarnoutse, & van Leeuwe, ) and that less skilled readers may engage in more paraphrasing than more skilled readers do (Caldwell & Leslie, ; Janssen et al., ; Laing & Kamhi, ; Moore & Scevak, ). There is evidence that weak comprehenders are less likely to recognize textual inconsistencies (Garner & Taylor, ; Hacker, ; Yuill & Oakhill, ), whereas better readers have a stronger tendency to evaluate text ideas (Janssen et al., ) and are more adept at correctly identifying incoherent sections of text (Coté & Goldman, ).…”
