Abstract :

دو ویژگی های اصلی دانش واژگان، وسعت واژگان و عمق دانش واژگان ، نقش اساسی در تحقیقات واژگان دارند. پژوهش حاضر با هدف بررسی رابطه بین دانش واژگان و درک مطلب، و به منظور بررسی  ویژگی های دانش واژگان، وسعت و عمق دانش واژگان، وتاثیر بهتر آ نها در شناسایی عملکرد درک انجام شده است. بنابراین، سه آزمون زبان درک مطلب خواندن، سطح آزمون واژگان و تست وابسته واژگان استفاده شده است. 64 دانشجو در رشته پزشکی در دانشگاه فردوسی مشهد، ایران، در این مطالعه شرکت کردند. نتایج همبستگی پیرسون و تجزیه و تحلیل چندگانه رگرسیون مشخص کرده است که نتایج آزمون در وسعت واژگان، عمق دانش واژگان، و درک مطلب رابطه مثبت داشته اند و وسعت و عمق دانش واژگان به هم مرتبط میباشند.
