Keresteš, Gordana; Brkovic, Irma; Siegel, Linda S.; Tjus, Tomas; Hjelmquist, Erland – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2019
The purpose of this study was to investigate literacy development beyond the early school years. We investigated mean-level and rank-order changes in two reading (word decoding speed and reading comprehension) and two spelling (word and pseudoword spelling accuracy) tasks during a 4-year period from beginning to the later grades of elementary…

Leong, Che Kan; Shum, Mark Shiu Kee; Tai, Chung Pui; Ki, Wing Wah; Zhang, Dongbo – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2019
This study examined the contribution of the constructs of orthographic processing (orthographic choice and orthographic choice in context), syntactic processing (grammaticality and sentence integrity), and verbal working memory (two reading span indicators) to written Chinese composition (narration, explanation, and argumentation) in 129…

Lipka, Orly – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2017
The goal of this study was to examine oral word reading fluency from a developmental perspective in a longitudinal study of students from second grade to sixth grade. The sample consisted of native English speaking students that took part in a large longitudinal study. Participants were assessed on cognitive and literacy measures such as working…

Adlof, Suzanne M.; Catts, Hugh W. – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2015
Children described as "poor comprehenders" (PCs) have reading comprehension difficulties in spite of adequate word reading abilities. PCs are known to display weakness with semantics and higher-level aspects of oral language, but less is known about their grammatical skills, especially with regard to morphosyntax. The purpose of this…

Raudszus, Henriette; Segers, Eliane; Verhoeven, Ludo – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2018
This study compared how lexical quality (vocabulary and decoding) and executive control (working memory and inhibition) predict reading comprehension directly as well as indirectly, via syntactic integration, in monolingual and bilingual fourth grade children. The participants were 76 monolingual and 102 bilingual children (mean age 10 years,…

Asadi, Ibrahim A.; Khateb, Asaid; Ibrahim, Raphiq; Taha, Haitham – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2017
The contribution of linguistic and cognitive variables to reading processes might vary depending on the particularities of the languages studied. This view is thought to be particularly true for Arabic which is a diglossic language and has particular orthographic and morpho-syntactic systems. This cross-sectional study examined the contribution of…

Harrison, Gina L.; Goegan, Lauren D.; Jalbert, Rachel; McManus, Kelly; Sinclair, Kristin; Spurling, Jessica – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2016
Cognitive and linguistic components related to spelling and writing in English as a second language (ESL) and native-English speaking (EL1) third graders were examined. ESL and EL1 children performed similarly on rapid naming, phonological awareness (PA), verbal short-term and working memory, reading fluency, single-word spelling, text spelling,…

Berninger, Virginia W.; Richards, Todd L.; Abbott, Robert D. – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2015
In Study 1, children in grades 4-9 (N = 88, 29 females and 59 males) with persisting reading and/or writing disabilities, despite considerable prior specialized instruction in and out of school, were given an evidence-based comprehensive assessment battery at the university while parents completed questionnaires regarding past and current history…

Lipka, Orly; Siegel, Linda S. – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2012
Reading comprehension is a multi-dimensional process that includes the reader, the text, and factors associated with the activity of reading. Most research and theories of comprehension are based primarily on research conducted with monolingual English speakers (L1). The present study was designed to investigate the cognitive and linguistic…

Sparks, Richard L. – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2004
Children classified as hyperlexic learn to read words spontaneously before age five, are impaired in both reading and listening comprehension, and exhibit word recognition skills above their linguistic and cognitive abilities. Despite their strong word recognition skills, previous studies have shown that the phonemic awareness skills of hyperlexic…
