Abstract

This study is concerned with the development of an instrument used to assess young learners’ reading strategies in English as a foreign language. It describes in detail the exploratory factor analysis that was used to improve the research instrument and to explore the relationships between survey items. Also, a reliability analysis was carried out. A reading strategy typology that takes into consideration learners’ age and cognitive abilities was suggested on the basis of the results.
