La compréhension de lecture est un processus interactif entre le lecteur et le texte par lequel le lecteur construit la signification du texte. Les objectifs de ce processus sont l'extraction de signification et l'appropriation de l'information véhiculée par l'écrit. Ces objectifs dépendent des connaissances préalables du lecteur sur le sujet et du type de texte et de sa capacité à mobiliser ses connaissances.
