Individual differences in reading performance between children appear from the onset of literacy acquisition. One possible explanation for this variability is the influence of inhibition in reading ability, a topic that has received very little research attention. Nevertheless, children often make guessing errors characterized by replacing a word…

In an eye-tracking study, we tested whether explicit word boundary information as provided by alternating…

Bowers, Patricia Greig; Wolf, Maryanne – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 1993
Reviews several lines of convergent research to discuss the relationship between developmental dyslexia and slow symbol naming speed. Describes the interactive development of orthographic and phonological codes, and methodological problems leading to underestimation of the importance of individual differences. Argues that an understanding of…
