Abstract

In the last decades the question of understanding texts has acquired great importance in the educational agenda and in the clinic field. As understanding texts supposses a complex process in which many factors converge (linguistic, psycholinguistic, cultural and personal factors)– this key issue deserved the deep analysis that Valeria Abusamra et al. develop in this work, which not only gives a theorical view of the theme, but also offers a a way of evaluating such competence. The Reading for Understanding Test (TLC) is an instrument which will allow professionals to deepen in the way each child processes information, in order to –eventually– make useful interventions designed to improve this skill. The work is divided in two main sections: in the first one, the theorical basis of the test is exposed. From a cognitive point of view, the processes envolved in understanding are deeply described, distinguishing between understanding and decodification. In the second section, the Test itself –which contains 11 areas of evaluation– is included. Initially designed for children aged 9-12 (but the range can vary according to the understanding level), this instrument will be of great interest not only for teachers and educational professionals but also for clinical studies.
