    Headings, Previews, Logical Connectives: Effects on Reading Comprehension ↗
    Jan H. Spyridakis; Timothy C. Standal
    Abstract

    This article examines the effects of headings, previews, and logical connectives on readers and their comprehension of technical expository prose. Results from two related experiments suggest that previews produce significant effects on literal and inferential comprehension while the other two signal types do not. Results are discussed in light of previous research and suggestions for future research are given.
