17. A MODELING OF READING STRATEGIES INTO THE READING PROCESS FROM A METACOGNITIVE PERSPECTIVE TYPES OF QUESTIONS What do you think textually explicit questions are about? Textually Explicit Questions are those where both the question information and the correct answer are found in the same sentence. What do you think textually implicit questions are about? Textually Implicit Questions, on the other hand, require responders to combine information across sentences. What do you think Scrip-based questions are about? Scrip-based Questions requires readers to integrate text information with their background knowledge since correct responses to the questions cannot be found in the text itself.
