The data were collected using reading test (35 items in the form of multiple choice) and personality questionnaire. The result revealed that there was no significant difference between students who use PQ4R and those who use Collaborative Strategic Reading (CSR) on their reading comprehension. The second one was there was no a significant difference between introverted students and extroverted students on their reading comprehension. The last one was that there was no a significant interaction between reading strategy and personality in their effect on students’ reading comprehension.
