COMPREHENSION
Comprehension has the following meanings:
- In general usage, and more specifically in reference to education and psychology, it has roughly the same meaning as understanding.
- Reading comprehension measures the understanding of a passage of text
- In logic, the comprehension of an object is the totality of intensions, that is, properties or qualities, that it possesses.
- Related to this, in Anglicanism, comprehension (or comprehensiveness) refers to the theological inclusiveness and liturgical breadth thought to be integral to the definition of the tradition
- From the functional perspective: to allocate a term, sentence, question, explanation ..., in the context of a conceptual system; to add meaning to/interpret a signal (textual, vocal, optical). Comprehention enables a reasoning and is necessary but not always sufficient for understanding if the last includes the capacity to application.
