USHCO, Shirley  y  LOPEZ, Juan. READING COMPREHENSION IN THE PROCESS OF LEARNING MATHEMATICS. Revista Chakiñan [online]. 2025, n.26, pp.239-255. ISSN 2550-6722.  https://doi.org/10.37135/chk.002.26.11.

Reading comprehension is considered a key element in developing critical skills in students since it facilitates the analysis and interpretation of textual content and strengthens logical and critical reasoning. The research determined the relationship between reading comprehension and mathematics learning, was framed in the positivist paradigm, and developed through a descriptive, correlational, and field quantitative methodology. Two instruments were used for data collection: a mathematical knowledge test adapted from the ninth-grade book of General Basic Education, unit 3 of algebra and functions curricular block, and a questionnaire designed to determine reading comprehension. The population consisted of students from the upper sublevel of the Pacific Ocean School, selected through a non-probabilistic convenience sampling, with a sample size of 20 participants. The results revealed a significant positive correlation of 0.921 between reading comprehension and mathematics learning, which led to the conclusion that the development of reading skills directly and significantly impacts academic performance in this area.

Palabras clave : Reading comprehension; mathematics learning; critical skills.
