INTRODUCTION
Reading comprehension is one of the most complex behaviors in which humans engage. Reading
theorists have grappled with how to comprehensively and meaningfully portray reading
comprehension and many different theoretical models have been proposed in recent decades
One framework, the Simple View of Reading (SVR), posits that reading comprehension is the product
of word decoding and linguistic comprehension (Gough & Tunmer, 1986). Across many languages,
research has shown that reading comprehension can be explained by individual differences in these
two components, though the relative relationship of the components changes over time (Catts, 2018).
Reading comprehension requires the coordination of multiple linguistic and cognitive processes
including, but not limited to, word reading ability, working memory, inference generation,
comprehension monitoring, vocabulary, and prior knowledge (Perfetti, Landi, & Oakhill, 2005).
The multifaceted nature of reading comprehension is reflected in component models that consider
subcomponents of comprehension. Component models such as the direct and inferential mediation
model (DIME; Ahmed et al., 2016; Cromley, Snyder-Hogan, & Luciw-Dubas, 2010; Oslund, Clemens,
Simmons, & Simmons, 2018; Oslund, Clemens, Simmons, Smith, & Simmons, 2016) have been fairly
consistent in their findings. These models indicate that vocabulary, both directly and indirectly, is
