[[Reading comprehension]] is the knowledge gained by reading. It is affected by brain capacity, general knowledge including vocabulary, and to some extent by reading skills.
Reading skills stress maintaining interest in the material being read, such as by stopping to wonder what was just read or even taking notes. Taking notes in a notebook is more instructive than highlighting text and prevents damage to the publication.<ref>dictionary.reference.com/browse/comprehension?o=100074</ref>
=== Increasing reading comprehension ===
To increase reading comprehension, you can: build vocabulary, actively engage with the text by asking questions and making connections, summarize key points, identify the main idea, use context clues to understand unfamiliar words, prioritize background knowledge on the topic, and practice visualizing what you read; consider reading challenging texts at a slower pace and re-reading sections that are confusing.<ref>[https://www.google.com/search?q=How+do+you+increase+readng+comprehension&oq=How+do+you+increase+readng+comprehension&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIJCAEQABgNGIAEMggIAhAAGBYYHjIICAMQABgWGB4yCAgEEAAYFhgeMggIBRAAGBYYHjIICAYQABgWGB4yCAgHEAAYFhgeMggICBAAGBYYHjIGCAkQLhhA0gEJMTI0MzdqMGoxqAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 How do you increase readng comprehension]</ref>
