Students had to choose among the five different options for each strategy type such as,  “I never or almost never do this”, “I do this only occasionally”, “ I sometimes do this”, “ I usually do this”, or “I always or almost always do this.” Among on the three groups by Hatami et al, the students have tendency toward using support reading strategies than others types.
