Treutlein, Anke; Schöler, Hermann; Landerl, Karin – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2017
This study investigated whether German learners of English as a foreign language (EFL) acquire additional recoding strategies that they do not need for recoding in the consistent German orthography.
