Morphological awareness is the ability to manipulate and reflect upon the morphological structures of the language (Carlisle 1995).
Morphological awareness is the foundation for the important developmental skills involved with vocabulary, as well as understanding the meaning of words, orthographic knowledge, reading, and writing.
The results of the current study indicate that morphological awareness is an important predictor of adults' reading comprehension over and above phonological awareness.
This is an important finding because it establishes that morphological awareness is an important contributor to the reading comprehension skills of adults enrolled in ABE programs.
This study enhances the existing literature on adults with low literacy and demonstrates that morphological awareness is an important component skill of reading comprehension for this population.
Similar to research that has been done with children, these findings suggest that morphological awareness is an important contributor to reading comprehension in adults with low literacy.

Previous literature on phonology and morphology has contested the degree to which phonological awareness and morphological awareness are separate, individual predictors of reading skills.
The meta-correlations between L1 and L2 vocabulary (.1) and L1 and L2 morphological awareness were rather small (.37), whereas the meta-correlations between L1 and L2 phonological awareness (.46) and L1 and L2 decoding were moderate (.44).44
Correlations between L1 and L2 with regard to the target domains such as phonological awareness, decoding, vocabulary, and morphological awareness were entered into predefined data sheet in the program together with the study name and sample size of each study.
Previous research findings have well documented that phonological awareness, vocabulary, decoding and morphological awareness are related to and predictive of students' reading development, regardless of the nature of L1 (e.g., Deacon & Kirby, 2004; Huang and Hanley, 1995; Keenan et al., 2008; Metsala, 1999; Shanahan et al., 2006; Shu et al., 2006).
