In recent years there has been a growing interest in the use of mentalistic measures in studying the reading process, both for insights such descriptions may provide for teachers in their teaching and for readers in their reading. This paper begins by discussing the unique role that mentalistic data may play in research on reading in ESP. Then "reading strategies" and verbal report methods for studying them are defined. Finally, the paper reports on Hebrew University student studies that have used verbal report techniques in four major areas of investigation: (a) developing a taxonomy for reading strategies, (b) checking the appropriateness of mentalistic measures for different populations, (c) determining similarities between first-language and foreign-language reading, and (d) describing the taking of reading comprehension tests. The findings presented are meant to be illustrative of the types of empirical data that can be obtained through the use of mentalistic measures.
