Table 3.
Mean and standard deviation (SD) of reading rate and comprehension as a function of time (start and end of training) and group (self-paced vs. text-fading)
| Start | End | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Self-paced | Text-fading | Self-paced | Text-fading | |||||
| Model variable | M | SD | M | SD | M | SD | M | SD |
| Reading rate | 6.71 | 2.30 | 7.47 | 3.87 | 10.33 | 7.76 | 10.19 | 6.58 |
| Comprehension in % | 64.50 | 21.68 | 66.80 | 21.22 | 59.72 | 25.07 | 67.80 | 21.04 |
Reading rate = milliseconds per character; comprehension in % = the percentage of correct answers in the multiple-choice questions after each sentence
