Jelena Markovic; Garvin Brod; Leonard Tetzlaff – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2025
Orthographic knowledge (i.e., the knowledge of conventions of a written language) has been identified as a predictor of both basic and higher-level reading processes, however, mostly examined in a cross-sectional design. It remains unclear, whether and how orthographic knowledge contributes uniquely in explaining differences in the acquisition of…

Xiujie Yang; Dora Jue Pan; Chor Ming Lo; Catherine McBride – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2024
The present study aimed to investigate whether and how Chinese single character reading and 2-character word reading can reflect somewhat different processes. Tasks of Chinese rapid automatized naming (RAN), morphological awareness, phonological awareness, orthographic knowledge, along with vocabulary knowledge and nonverbal intelligence tasks,…

Xie, Ruibo; Fang, Yuanyuan; Wu, Xinchun; Nguyen, Thi Phuong – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2023
Children's idiom comprehension is an important aspect of language development. Idioms have both literal and figurative meanings, and there are often great differences between literal meaning and figurative meaning, which brings great difficulties to children's accurate understanding of idioms. As a kind of underlying language ability,…

Mervis, Carolyn B.; Greiner de Magalhães, Caroline; Cardoso-Martins, Cláudia – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2022
We examined the cognitive, language, and instructional factors associated with reading ability in Williams syndrome (WS). Seventy 9-year-olds with WS completed standardized measures of real-word reading, pseudoword decoding, reading comprehension, phonological skills, listening comprehension, nonverbal reasoning, visual-spatial ability, verbal…

Yang, Xiujie; McBride, Catherine; Ho, Connie Suk-Han; Chung, Kevin Kien Hoa – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2020
This 13-month longitudinal study investigated whether different phonological processing components independently predicted individual differences in Chinese word reading and arithmetic. Three phonological processing skills [phonological awareness, phonological memory, and rapid automatized naming (RAN)], word reading, and arithmetic were assessed…

Pham, Giang T.; Snow, Catherine E. – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2021
Measures of decoding and oral language have been shown to predict early reading comprehension across a wide variety of languages, though the timeframe and strength of the predictions vary by orthographic depth. This study is the first to examine predictors of early reading in Vietnamese, a transparent orthography of Romanized letters and…

Elsayyad, Hossam; Everatt, John; Mortimore, Tilly; Haynes, Charles – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2017
Unlike English, short vowel sounds in Arabic are represented by diacritics rather than letters. According to the presence and absence of these vowel diacritics, the Arabic script can be considered more or less transparent in comparison with other orthographies. The purpose of this study was to investigate the contribution of working memory to…

Lee, Kathleen; Chen, Xi – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2019
This study investigated an emergent interaction between word reading fluency and vocabulary knowledge in the prediction of reading comprehension among French immersion students in Grades 2 and 3. A group of 66 students were tested on measures of phonological awareness, rapid automatized naming, word reading accuracy, vocabulary, word reading…

Shahar-Yames, Daphna; Prior, Anat – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2017
We examined reading proficiency, focusing on fluency, in 56 Russian-speaking language minority (LM) students and 56 native Hebrew-speaking (NH) peers. Fifth-grade students completed measures of Hebrew reading accuracy and fluency from word to text level as well as phonological awareness (PA), RAN and vocabulary. LM students read single words less…
