The purpose of this study was to determine which macro and micro-structural variables in oral story retellings predict reading comprehension as measured by Lexile scores yielded by the Scholastic Reading Inventory (SRI) and which of those variables predict group placement in reading achievement. Twenty-three third graders retold two stories they had read in their reading groups in the classroom setting to the researcher who transcribed the retellings word for word and coded them for three macro-structural variables (i.e., Morrow Scale scores, Irwin and Mitchell Retelling Scale scores, and ratio of number of episodes recalled) and five micro-structural variables (i.e., total number of T-units, total number of words, mean length of T-unit, Type Token Ratio, and total number of conjunctions). None of these variables were significantly correlated to the Lexile comprehension scores. Nevertheless, according to linear regression analyses, one macro-structural variable, ratio of episodes recalled in the retelling, predicted Lexile comprehension scores ( t (22) = -2.384, p = .03). One micro-structural variable in the retelling, mean length of T-unit, predicted Lexile comprehension scores (t (22) = 2.225, p = .04). Analysis of variance indicated that ratio of episodes included in the retelling was the only structural variable that predicted reading group placement as defined by reading below, on, or above grade level according to Lexile scores [ F (2, 20) = 4.221, p = .03]. Post-hoc analyses combining below and on grade level readers to contrast with above grade level readers yielded four significant predictors of group placement: Morrow Scale ( X2 = 3.94, p = .05), total number of T-units (X2 = 5.28, p = .02), total number of words (X2 = 7.79, p = .005), and total number of conjunctions (X 2 = 3.71, p = .05). Results question the predictive validity of the Morrow and Irwin and Mitchell scales, as well as most micro-structural variables, when predicting Lexile comprehension scores. Results suggest that number of episodes recalled as compared to the total number of episodes in the story and/or mean length of T-unit included in the retelling may be the most promising structural variables to consider when predicting Lexile comprehension scores.
