Ratima Tianchai; Suthathip Thirakunkovit; Songsri Soranasataporn – rEFLections, 2024
This research explored the effectiveness of using the word network technique to teach English vocabulary to first graders in Thai Primary schools. The 150 top-frequency words used in three nationally-used textbooks were inventoried. The list of the words then was compared with the list proposed by the Ministry of Education, Thailand. The combined…

Gibson, Todd A.; Peña, Elizabeth D.; Bedore, Lisa M.; McCarter, Kevin S. – International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism, 2022
Although a "semantic receptive-expressive gap" appears to be a universal feature of early bilingualism, little is known about its development. We sought to determine if the magnitude of the discrepancy between receptive and expressive standard scores changed over time in bilingual children's two languages. In this longitudinal study,…

Gabriella Reynolds; Krystal L. Werfel; Sarah Hudgins; Stephen Camarata; Fred H. Bess – Exceptional Children, 2024
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the types of spelling errors made by children with mild to moderate hearing loss (CMMHL) compared with children with typical hearing (TH) and to determine if types of spelling errors were related to linguistic or audiologic factors. CMMHL and TH completed measures of spelling, spoken language, speech…

Mouzaki, Angeliki; Spyropoulou, Elli; Ralli, Asimina; Antoniou, Faye; Diamanti, Vassiliki; Papaioannou, Sophia – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2020
Purpose: This study investigated component skills in oral language development utilizing and validating a new assessment battery in a large (N = 800) and representative sample of Greek students 4-7 years of age. Method: All participants enrolled in public schools from four geographical regions (Attica, Thessaly, Macedonia, and Crete) that varied…

Chow, Jason C.; Frey, Jennifer R.; Naples, Lauren H. – Assessment for Effective Intervention, 2021
We investigated the associations between teacher-rated and direct assessments of early elementary students' speech and language skills to explore whether using teachers as primary screeners yielded assessment data that reliably identified young students with language difficulties who many need a more comprehensive evaluation. We assessed first-…

Chen, Aleck Shih-wei – Second Language Research, 2021
This article reports a study examining whether foreign language (FL) word learning can be improved with reduction in cognitive load. Cognitive load theory has received substantial supports in various fields of learning but never in FL word learning. Due to the defined poverty in exposure to the FL, hence deprived cognitive pre-requisites for…

Bedore, Lisa M.; Peña, Elizabeth D.; Collins, Penelope; Fiestas, Christine; Lugo-Neris, Mirza; Barquin, Elisa – Child Language Teaching and Therapy, 2023
Purpose: There are well-established links between oral language and reading development in monolingual English-speaking children that are associated with literacy outcomes. Oral language, defined relative to lexical quality, provides key support for developing early reading skills. For bilingual children, the connection between oral language and…

Reading Fluency in Chinese Children with Reading Disabilities and/or ADHD: A Key Role for Morphology
Li, Miao; Georgiou, George; Kirby, John R.; Frijters, Jan C.; Zhao, Wei; Wang, Tingzhao – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2023
The Triangle Model of Reading proposes that phonology, orthography, and semantics are crucial to understand word reading and reading disability (RD). Morphology has been added as a binding agent to this model. However, it is unclear how these variables relate to word reading in children with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or…

Asadi, Ibrahim A.; Khateb, Asaid – Reading Psychology, 2017
This study examined the orthographic transparency of Arabic by investigating the contribution of phonological awareness (PA), vocabulary, and Rapid Automatized Naming (RAN) to reading vowelized and unvowelized words. The results from first and second grade children showed that PA contribution was similar in the vowelized and unvowelized…

Chambrè, Susan J.; Ehri, Linnea C.; Ness, Molly – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2020
An experiment examined orthographic facilitation of vocabulary learning, that is, whether showing students spellings of novel words during learning helps them remember the words when spellings are no longer present. The purpose was to determine whether having students decode the spellings of vocabulary words improves word learning over passive…
