Resumen

PIOVANO, Silvia; IRRAZABAL, Natalia  y  BURIN, Débora I.. Comprehension of academic expository texts in e-book Reader vs. paper:. Cienc. Psicol. [online]. 2018, vol.12, n.2, pp.177-185. ISSN 1688-4094.  https://doi.org/10.22235/cp.v12i2.1680.

In a study involving 102 university students, reading comprehension of printed academic texts versus e-book Reader format was compared. Eff ects of specifi c previous domain knowledge and verbal ability were examined. Students’ attitudes towards the e-book Reader before and after the experiment were also investigated. Results suggest that the e-book Reader would benefit more competent readers, and that it could promote greater metacognitive activity in comprehension processes. Also, attitudes towards the e-book Reader changed after the experience, although self-evaluation judgments showed that the printed format is still preferred

Palabras clave : E-book Reader; reading comprehension; expository texts; verbal aptitude; metacognition.
