Dialogue with a conversational agent promotes children's story comprehension via enhancing engagement.

In terms of the direct paths from reading conditions to the outcome, there was a marginally significant direct path from Agent non‐DR to the story comprehension score ( β = −0.34, p = .06), suggesting that children in the Agent non‐DR condition may have had lower learning performance compared to those in the Agent DR condition while controlling for irrelevant and relevant vocalization mediators and other covariates.
