Grainger, Jonathan; Lete, Bernard; Bertand, Daisy; Dufau, Stephane; Ziegler, Johannes C. – Cognition, 2012
We describe a multiple-route model of reading development in which coarse-grained orthographic processing plays a key role in optimizing access to semantics via whole-word orthographic representations. This forms part of the direct orthographic route that gradually replaces phonological recoding during the initial phases of reading acquisition.…
