@SaraJPeden I will. It was late on Thanksgiving and citations didn't fit in tweets. Will need to write a blog post. All back versions of Handbook on Reading Research openly released. Good place to start .

@davidbraze was Just citing much of your NIH vocabulary work when I was pointing out saying "science of reading" while basing definition of reading on an SVR model is by defintion an oxymoron.

@EBLIreads The role of knowledge, followed by vocabulary (though often vocabulary used as proxy for knowledge in many studies) in predicting comprehension is one of the most stable results in reading research over last 50 years.

@DoctorSam7 that would be my take away from Rosenshine's meta analysis: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.3102/00346543064004479 strategy instruction has moderate to strong effects but stronger the reader lower effect size and you hit ceiling quick.

@SaraJPeden can we all agree that people are using skill and strategy using operational definitions close to Paris, Wasik, Turner as summarized by Pearson and Afflerbach as "skills to automaticity" and strategies as taking deliberate planning?

@SaraJPeden Factor in this sense of comprehension models is referring to a very specific type of modeling. When researchers say comprehension is multi factor they mean it can't be measured on one scale in way that explains more variance than noise.

@SaraJPeden I wasn't trying to make a criticism or assertion spointing our people were using two words in very different ways. "factor" and "skills" in current zeitgeist of research phonics is considered a skill, something taught to automaticity.
