Worked practice questions

Which researchers first identified shallow and deep levels of processing?

  1. Craik and Lockhart
  2. Palincsar and Brown
  3. Black and Wiliam
  4. Aaron and Frederiksen
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. Craik and Lockhart

1. Reading comprehension is described at two levels of processing, shallow and deep. 2. The theory behind these levels was first identified by Fergus Craik and Robert Lockhart. 3. Palincsar and Brown are linked to reciprocal teaching, and Black and Wiliam to formative assessment, so they do not fit. _Source: Wikipedia, Reading comprehension, section Reading comprehension levels_

Linking a new word's meaning to similar words is which processing?

  1. Shallow phonemic processing
  2. Structural word recognition
  3. Visual letter scanning
  4. Deep semantic processing
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. Deep semantic processing

1. Encoding the meaning of a word and relating it to similar words is semantic work. 2. Semantic work is called deep processing in comprehension research. 3. Shallow processing deals only with word structure and sounds, so the other options fail. _Source: Wikipedia, Reading comprehension, section Reading comprehension levels_
