Abstract

This paper approaches reading comprehension. It analyzes the evolution of reading comprehension concepts, first from the studies of the Cognitive Psychology and second from the sociocultural approach. Finally, it concludes that there is a need to establish a consensus to bridge both trends and build a more solid and integral conceptualization of reading comprehension.
