Resumo: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of a program for the remediation of reading comprehension. The experimental design was quasi-experimental, with pre-test and post-test interventions. Forty-one college students aged 18 to 51 years participated in the study, which were divided into two groups: 22 in the Experimental Group and 19 in the Control Group. We used a cloze test in the pre- and post-tests. The results indicated that the students showed improved performance in the post-test as more than half of the participants increased their scores, but this improvement was insufficient to change the level of reading comprehension in most cases. It may be concluded that the activities were relevant mainly because they favored awareness of students about the importance of Reading comprehension and effective studying.

O delineamento usado foi quase-experimental, com pré-teste, intervenção e pós-teste. Participaram da pesquisa 41 universitários, com idade de 18 a 51 anos, sendo 22 do Grupo Experimental e 19 do Grupo Controle. Foi utilizado o teste de Cloze no prée no pós-teste. Os resultados indicaram que os estudantes mostraram desempenho superior no pós-teste, visto que houve um incremento na pontuação em mais da metade dos participantes, mas que tal melhora foi insuficiente para mudar o nível de compreensão, na maioria dos casos. Pode-se concluir que as atividades desenvolvidas foram relevantes, principalmente porque favoreceram a conscientização dos estudantes sobre a importância da compreensão de leitura e do estudo eficiente.  Núcleo de Editoração - PUC-Campinas2023-03-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/8072Psychological Studies; Vol. 32 No. 1 (2015): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; Vol. 32 Núm. 1 (2015): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; v. 32 n. 1 (2015): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)1982-0275reponame:Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPporhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/8072/5585Copyright (c) 2023 Adriana Rosecler ALCARÁ, Acácia Aparecida Angeli dos SANTOShttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessALCARÁ, Adriana RoseclerSANTOS, Acácia Aparecida Angeli dos2023-03-28T14:22:49Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/8072Revistahttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudosPRIhttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudos/oaisbi.ne_estpsi@puc-campinas.edu.br||estudosdepsicologia@puc-campinas.edu.br||psychologicalstudies@puc-campinas.edu.br1982-02750103-166Xopendoar:2023-03-28T14:22:49Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
