ABSTRACT\u003Cbr>The study compared the use of the lexical glossing and inferencing strategies that impact toward the students’ reading comprehension. The objective of the study was to find out the effective strategy to use for enhancing the students’ reading comprehension. The population of the study was 40 Informatics Systems students of Potensi Utama University. The data collection was used written test by comparing the scores results after giving the treatment. The written test was conducted to identify students’ reading comprehension performance toward the use of lexical glossing and inferencing strategies. The data was analyzed applying an experimental research design. There were two tests in this study before and after treatment. Before treatment without using the strategies, the first test was applied to first group and second group. After treatment with using the strategies, the second test was applied to the first and second group. The firstgroup was taught using lexical glossing strategy, while the second group was treated using lexical inferencing strategies. The test resulted that the students in the second group using lexical inferencing strategies could guess the unfamiliar word meaning correctly that impact toward the students’reading comprehension. While the students in the first group using the lexical glossing strategy make erroneous guesses about unfamiliar word meaning that impact on the students’reading comprehension. Therefore, it can be concluded that lexical inferencing strategy was recommended to teach to enhance the students’reading comprehension. |\n\nINTRODUCTION  \nTo achieve the reading comprehension, a reader must have the ability, experience and knowledge to understand the text meaning. One of the important knowledge in reading comprehension is vocabulary knowledge. As Schmitt states (2010:4) that vocabulary knowledge helps to communicate between the writer and the reader to get the similar understanding of the text. The understanding of the text can be achieved by mastering the vocabulary knowledge. The more much the vocabulary mastery have, the more the text well comprehend. The vocabulary mastery and reading are clearly related for the understanding of words meaning and their use that contribute to reading comprehension. Stoller & Grabe (1993:23) states that vocabulary mastery is essential element in reading comprehension. By mastering vocabulary is automotically helping the reading comprehension. In short, the reader with the vocabulary mastery can be able to understand the text well.  \nTo become a good reader, the students must not only have the vocabulary mastery, but also need to learn the way to understand the unfamiliar word meaning during the reading process. The appropriate way to understand unfamiliar word meaning as long as they read can be used to understand the text meaning easily. One of the alternative ways to use are  \nas the strategy to understand the unfamiliar word meaning in the text like vocabulary knowledge background. Students should be able to develop this vocabulary knowledge and also use the effective strategy to help their understanding to the text that impact to the reading comprehension. One of the effective strategies to help the students’reading comprehension is lexic","cbCailaGh96x5giD","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailaGh96x5giD","pdf",452277,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Vocabulary knowledge and reading comprehension\n## Strategies for unfamiliar word meaning\n## Lexical inferencing strategy\n## Lexical glossing strategy","[{\"question\":\"What is the main purpose of the study?\",\"answer\":\"The study compares lexical glossing and lexical inferencing strategies and determines which strategy is more effective for improving students’ reading comprehension.\"},{\"question\":\"How was the research conducted?\",\"answer\":\"The research used an experimental design with written tests administered before and after treatment across two groups.\"},{\"question\":\"What were the different treatments for the two student groups?\",\"answer\":\"One group was taught using lexical glossing, while the other group used lexical inferencing strategies to guess unfamiliar word meanings.\"},{\"question\":\"What conclusion does the study reach about the strategies?\",\"answer\":\"Lexical inferencing is recommended because students using it could guess unfamiliar word meanings more accurately, which positively affected reading comprehension.\"}]","The Comparative Impacts of Using Lexical Glossing and Inferencing Strategies on Students’ Reading Comprehension | PDF"]
