q1 i? The literature reports subskills proposed by both qualitative and quantitative empirical studies and by theories, and there is no consensus on their number. → Aynur Ismayilli Karakoc 2019

Aynur Ismayilli Karakoc. (2019). Reading and Listening Comprehension Subskills: The Match between Theory, Coursebooks, and Language Proficiency Tests. Advances in Language and Literary Studies, 10(4). https://doi.org/10.7575/aiac.alls.v.10n.4p.166

q1 · i? · review · r2

Narrative literature-review statement in the article's review section. The article reports that subskills have been proposed "either as a result of qualitative and quantitative empirical investigations" or theories, citing studies such as Buck, Tatsuoka & Kostin (1997), Jang (2005), and Kim (2011).

"Although there is no consensus on the number of subskills, the multi-divisibility of reading and listening has most intrigued the researchers leading to a varying number of subskills."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Reading and listening comprehension are not unitary: both consist of similar and different subskills — related
• Cross-comparing theory, nine proficiency tests, and 25 coursebook tasks yields ten subskills shared between reading and listening, seven exclusive to reading, and four exclusive to listening — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
• Major 21st century skills frameworks are largely consistent, adding to P21 either highlighted subskills or areas underemphasized in its categories — related
