Abstract

Reading has shifted from reading on typical paperbound to digital document. Studies show that digital document has some physical drawback that might affect reading comprehension. The focus of this study is to find out if reading on paper and reading on screen yield different effect towards reading comprehension. Thirty-two undergraduate students in UNIMAS have participated in this study. There are two independent variables that were investigated in this research, reading material (paper versus screen) and time condition (free regulation versus time constrained). The results show that both reading material and time condition affect reading comprehension.
