The role of linguistic clues in medical students' reading comprehension.

Objective: This study has investigated the role of linguistic clues in medical students' reading comprehension. The association between medical students' reading comprehension and their use of linguistic contextual clues through a descriptive analytical procedure has been investigated.

Methods: Three intact sessions were conducted at the Jordanian University entailing 20 students in each session. The participants responded to a reading comprehension test, an inference test, and a vocabulary scale sheet.

Results: Individuals, who took part in the interview, were dependent solely on the word morphology and sentence-level clues, while evaluating the medical texts. This would help in finding the association between the comprehension evaluation and the use of linguistic clues.

Conclusion: Language intervention should be initiated in an effort to improve medical students' reading comprehension.
