Examining The Prediction of Listening Comprehension Skills on Reading Comprehension Performances

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the prediction of listening comprehension skills on reading

comprehension performances. Participants were 52 students from kindergarten classes. Their

listening comprehension abilities were tested when they were in kindergarten, then their

reading comprehension performances when they were at first grade. Two measures (Listening

Comprehension Test and Text Reading and Reading Comprehension Test) were used to evaluate

the participants’ listening comprehension and reading comprehension skills. All evaluation

sessions were carried out individually in a quiet room located in the school of the child. A

Linear Regression Analysis was used to analyze the data. Findings from the present study

indicated that listening comprehension skills were one of the significant predictors of reading

comprehension performance. All findings were discussed with reference to the contents and

processing procedure of both listening and reading comprehension skills.

Keywords
