the extent to which they impact other variables in the learning
situation. In addition, we have a lot to learn about the indi-
vidual variables that are difficult to quantify (e.g., motivation,
persistence, interest) but undoubtedly are critical in a full
model of comprehension. The current and future challenge
for research in comprehension is to continue to uncover vari-
ables in input and individual factors that influence and sup-
port learning and to integrate such knowledge into the
already complex picture of what makes a good learner.
