Popis:Objective. This study aims to examine the mediating role of reading fluency in executive functions and reading comprehension. Method. To this end, 85 Spanish-speaking children in upper elementary grades were assessed on reading comprehension, reading fluency, fluid intelligence, and executive functions (working memory, inhibition, and cognitive flexibility). Predictors of reading fluency and reading comprehension were examined, along with the mediating role of reading fluency in executive functions and reading comprehension. Results. Fluid intelligence emerged as relevant in both reading processes. Reading fluency was not found to mediate the relationship between executive functions and reading comprehension. The results are discussed within the framework of thecognitive complexity inherent in reading comprehension.
