ability to generate inferences is fundamental to be able to understand
a text. (Abusamra, Cartoceti, Ferreres, De Beni & Cornoldi, 2009).
Inferences are the set of mental processes based on the information
offered by a text, and the mental representation processed by the
reader, producing new implicit knowledge in the reader. They are
constructed when, by means of relationships and associations, the
local or global meaning of the text is understood (Parodi, 2005). The
inferential process is part of complex thinking, it challenges the
student to innovate, create and integrate knowledge, it is essential to
understand and solve problems, the basis for the development of the
educational, pedagogical and didactic model. (Mora, 2020).
Inferences are made in three ways, connecting events with others in
a story, filling in the gaps in the text, and adding events from the
context and the reader's schemas to the text. The inferential dynamic
becomes essential for comprehension tasks. (Ferreiro, E., 1982). For
the comprehension of a text, the reader uses the acquired knowledge,
in addition to the inferential capacity and links it to the social
context. (Guerra, E., and Forero, C., 2015).
Developing the inferential capacity is possible through the detective
story due to its enigmatic character, the inconclusive situations, its
unconventional structure and the implicit actions that the reader must
reveal, leading the student to make inferences.
Most of the researches consider that the main problem about reading
difficulties are the failures of the decoding process that a subject
faces for reading comprehension. (Juric, L., Andrés, M., Introzzi, I.
& Richard's, M., 2007). Therefore, didactic strategies should be
implemented motivating students to read and different types of
readings in order to improve students' reading comprehension.
This was also stated by (Zapata, S., and Esthefany, M., 2016). In
their thesis had the purpose of designing a Didactic Manual of
Comprehensive Reading in the area of Language and Literature for
students of Fourth Year of Basic Education, these highlighted the
importance of reading and its influence in the teaching-learning
process, in the intellectual development and the construction of new
knowledge. Thus, they propose new didactic strategies to achieve
reading comprehension of students, to adopt the habit of reading,
