ABSTRACT In the Latin American context, reading comprehension has become more relevant due to its important role in achieving new learning and the low ratings students get in the PISA test, reflecting the difficulties they have educated to understand what they read, generating frustration, temporary abandonment, or desertion of the education system because of poor academic performance. This article of literature review and critical analysis aims to analyze the role of self-efficacy in reading comprehension. Research that addresses both variables in depth and reinforces the theory of the role that the former plays over the latter, as a student with a good level of self-efficacy will set high academic goals, where the compression of texts is crucial, and will persist to achieve them, while with low self-efficacy it will hardly strive to achieve them.
