While foundational component reading skills (e.g., decoding, vocabulary, morphology, sentence processing) are known to account for a large portion of variance in reading comprehension, this study used the Reading Systems Framework to explore potential interactions between component reading skills. Results suggest that word-level processes interact with lexical knowledge in predicting comprehension among struggling adult readers. Keyphrases: adult literacy, lexical knowledge, reading system framework, struggling readers, text comprehension
