DIAS, Paula Bandeira; CORREA, Jane  y  OLIVEIRA, Rosinda Martins. Narrative scheme, its cognitive correlates and reading comprehension. Arq. bras. psicol. [online]. 2019, vol.71, n.2, pp. 6-23. ISSN 1809-5267.  http://dx.doi.org/10.36482/1809-5267.ARBP2019v71i2p.6-23.

Structural aspects characteristic of textual types provide strategic reading towards comprehension. Two studies are presented: the first examines the relationship between knowledge of narrative scheme and reading comprehension in 65 children (4th and 5th years), and the second investigates cognitive correlates of the domain of narrative scheme in 22 children (4th year). The most skilled children in narrative knowledge (questionnaire) achieved better reading comprehension (Cloze technique). High-level executive skills (WASI Execution IQ and subtests) were correlated with the identification of the outcome of the story. There was no correlation of knowledge of narrative scheme with basic executive functions (WISCIV and Stroop Operational Memory Index) or verbal skills (WASI Verbal IQ and subtests). Knowing the textual structure can facilitate directing attention to crucial information in the text and establishing relationships between them through high-level executive functions.
