The Development of Letter and Syllable Effects in Categorization, Reading Aloud, and Picture Naming.

Marmurek, Harvey H. C.; Rinaldo, Richard – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1992
Second and fourth graders and college students categorized one- and two-syllable words. Categorization response times for second graders were related to the number of letters in one-syllable words. Second and fourth graders had longer categorization times than college students for four-letter, two-syllable words. (BC)
