The Simple View of Reading Redux

Abstract: This study investigated the hypothesis that the contributions of oral language comprehension (C) and word recognition (D) to reading comprehension (R) in the simple view of reading (SVR) are not independent because a component of C (vocabulary knowledge) directly contributes to the variance in D. Three analysis procedures (hierarchical regression analysis, exploratory factor analysis, and structural equation modeling) were used to analyze data obtained from a sample (N = 122) of 7-year-old students who were ad… Show more

“…We caution, however, that this right lateralized finding might be reversed if other measures of language comprehension are tested. As conceptualized by the Simple View, language comprehension encompasses everything from word meaning to passage comprehension (Tunmer & Chapman, 2012), and it is likely that different relations between these various skills and brain structures will exist. However, it is unlikely that single word reading, which is prerequisite to passage reading, accounts for this brain-behavior relation given that our single word reading measure did not correlate with the AF, and our two reading measures did not correlate with one another.…”

“…The Simple View of reading (Gough & Tunmer, 1986; Hoover & Gough, 1990; Tunmer & Chapman, 2012) holds that normal reading can be predicted by two key factors: word recognition and language comprehension. In competent readers, both are thought to be equally important.…”

“…According to the Simple View of Reading, reading is the product of decoding and oral language. Tunmer and Chapman (2012) clarified that the Simple View was never meant as a complete theory of reading and that decoding and oral language were comprised of subcomponent processes that were directly or indirectly related to other factors. The link between decoding and reading comprehension in the Simple View has a strong research foundation.…”

“…It will also be worthwhile to consider Gough and Tunmer's Simple View of Reading (SVR;1986;Tunmer & Chapman, 2012), which has been influential in framing work on development of reading comprehension and its connections to oral language comprehension and visual word recognition. The Simple View states that comprehension of written language is the product of two capacities: the ability to decode, or to access lexical representations by way of their print forms, and the capacity for general language comprehension (typically operationalized through measures of oral language comprehension).…”
