我们提出了一种新的测量个体差异的阅读理解能力，是理论上的动机，易于管理，并具有较高的预测能力。参与者阅读3句话的段落，描述了一组真实的和人工术语之间的关系，然后他们对真假陈述作出反应，评估他们的能力，访问和整合长期记忆知识与文本信息，使基于文本的推理，并回忆文本。我们的任务的组成部分预测了整体阅读理解测试和一系列特定理解测试的表现，每一个测试都更侧重于一个特定的组成部分。我们的任务是更好地预测，阅读理解比是一个典型的工作记忆广度的任务，并有可能为研究人员的理解和测量的范围内的语言和认知任务。
We propose a new measure of individual differences in reading comprehension ability that is theoretically motivated, is easy to administer, and that has high predictive power. Participants read 3-sentence paragraphs that describe the relations among a set of real and artificial terms, and then they respond to true-false statements that assess their ability to access and integrate long-term memory knowledge with text information, to make text-based inferences, and to recall text. The components of our task predict performance on a test of global reading comprehension and on a range of specific comprehension tests, each of which draws more heavily on one particular component. Our task is better at predicting, reading comprehension than is a typical working memory span task and has the potential for a researchers' understanding and measurement of a range of linguistic and cognitive tasks.
