NCCREStpart of the Education Reform NetworksBackground Knowledge, Linguistic Complexity, and Second-Language Reading ComprehensionExamines the role of cultural background knowledge on the reading comprehension of third graders acquiring literacy in Dutch as a first and second language while reading noncontrived texts from the reading curricula. Finds a facilitating effect of cultural familiarity for both reading comprehension and reading efficiency. Notes that this effect was restricted for the minority children to linguistically simple texts. (RS)
