| Popis: | This paper aimed at investigating the frequencies of reading strategies employed by Vietnamese non-English major students while taking a reading comprehension test at Kien Giang University. Data was collected through a questionnaire delivered to 117 sophomores who majored in Economics, Accounting and Construction at Kien Giang University. The results from the descriptive statistics showed that Vietnamese non-English majors were medium strategy users. Of the three types of reading strategies, cognitive strategies were the most frequently used, followed by metacognitive and support reading strategies. Out of 27 reading strategies, students reportedly used item number 14 “I read the text again for better understanding.” at the highest frequency while rating item number 2 “I determined what the type of the text is.” the least frequency. |
