In this research, we examined the effect of Underlining Strategy Intervention, based on the CALLA model in EFL and ESL contexts. A group of 189 college students were randomly selected from different universities in Iran and India. Based on a proficiency test, students were grouped into high, moderate, and low level. Then, the underlining strategy was taught during the treatment sessions. The results suggest that intervention or explicit instruction was effective in increasing the reading comprehension of both Iranian and Indian students although Indian ESL students were able to perform better in comparison to their Iranian EFL counterparts. There was no significant difference between proficiency level and students' performance in reading comprehension in EFL and ESL contexts. In addition, there was no significant difference between males and females in both contexts. 2011 artículo científico 0123-3432 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=255019722006 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=2550 Íkala, revista de lenguaje y cultura application/pdf Universidad de Antioquia Íkala, revista de lenguaje y cultura (Colombia) Num.27 Vol.16
