Second Language Reading Strategy Research at the Secondary and University Levels: Variations, Disparities, and Generalizability.

Abstract

Because of the interactive nature of variables involved in reading a second language text, an attempt to evaluate different studies that examine L2 strategies in terms of their generalizability is necessary. This article highlights some L2 reading strategy investigations in order to illuminate the disparities in research methods utilized across studies that are conducted with participants beyond the elementary school grade levels. It includes an extended discussion of some relevant research and provides tables to visually display the variations. Because of the highlighted differences in the database of research it is difficult to formulate generalizations, thereby limiting the instructional implications. Suggestions for future research are also provided. _______________
