Executive functions are one of the most prominent research topics investigated in explaining reading skills, which involve complex cognitive processes. In this study, a bibliometric analysis of articles on executive functions and reading in the field of education was conducted. In the study, 42 articles published between 2012 and 2024 were…

A recent Registered Replication Report (RRR) of the development of verbal rehearsal during serial recall revealed that children verbalized at younger ages than previously thought, but did not identify sources of individual differences. Here, we use mediation analysis to reanalyze data from the 934 children ranging from 5 to 10 years old from the…

Oakhill, Jane – Discourse Processes: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2020
A substantial amount of research has focused on children's reading development and reading problems, but in comparison there has been relatively little research into children's reading comprehension. This article provides an overview of the research that has investigated the skills and cognitive processes that support children's understanding of…

Ober, Teresa M.; Brooks, Patricia J.; Homer, Bruce Douglas – AERA Online Paper Repository, 2020
Previous meta-analyses highlight the role of executive functions (EF), encompassing working memory, task-switching, and inhibition, in reading comprehension, but have not demarcated its role in decoding, defined as use of orthographic patterns to access oral pronunciations. According to the dual-route model, decoding involves parallel activation…

Kim, Young-Suk – Child Development, 2015
Using data from children in South Korea (N = 145, M[subscript age] = 6.08), it was determined how low-level language and cognitive skills (vocabulary, syntactic knowledge, and working memory) and high-level cognitive skills (comprehension monitoring and theory of mind [ToM]) are related to listening comprehension and whether listening…

de Leeuw, Linda; Segers, Eliane; Verhoeven, Ludo – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2016
The focus of the present study was on the mediation and moderation effects of reading processes as evidenced from eye movements on the relation between cognitive and linguistic student characteristics (word decoding, vocabulary, comprehension skill, short-term memory, working memory, and nonverbal intelligence) and text comprehension. Forty 4th…

Tat, Michael J.; Azuma, Tamiko – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2012
Misspellings in sentences are usually easy to understand by readers due to top-down influences. Although top-down processing allows for fluent reading of misspelled items, the nature of their representations in memory is not known. If representations of misspellings are distinct from representations of correctly spelled words, their influence…

Banai, Karen; Yifat, Rachel – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2012
Previous studies suggest that anchoring, a short-term dynamic and implicit process that allows individuals to benefit from contextual information embedded in stimulus sequences, might be causally related to reading acquisition. Here we report findings from two experiments in which two previously untested predictions derived from this anchoring…

Fraser, Jill; Goswami, Usha; Conti-Ramsden, Gina – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2010
We explore potential similarities between developmental dyslexia (specific reading disability [SRD]) and specific language impairment (SLI) in terms of phonological skills, underlying auditory processing abilities, and nonphonological language skills. Children aged 9 to 11 years with reading and/or language difficulties were recruited and compared…

Kazi, Smaragda; Demetriou, Andreas; Spanoudis, George; Zhang, Xiang Kui; Wang, Yuan – Intelligence, 2012
This study investigated intellectual development in 4-7 years old Greek and Chinese children. They were examined on speeded performance, working memory, reasoning, and self-awareness tasks in order to investigate possible effects of learning the Chinese logographic system on possible differences in intellectual development between these ethnic…

Towse, John N.; Hitch, Graham J.; Hamilton, Z.; Pirrie, Sarah – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2008
We analyze the timing of recall as a source of information about children's performance in complex working memory tasks. A group of 8-year-olds performed a traditional operation span task in which sequence length increased across trials and an operation period task in which processing requirements were extended across trials of constant sequence…

Locascio, Gianna; Mahone, E. Mark; Eason, Sarah H.; Cutting, Laurie E. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2010
Emerging research supports the contribution of executive function (EF) to reading comprehension; however, a unique pattern has not been established for children who demonstrate comprehension difficulties despite average word recognition ability (specific reading comprehension deficit; S-RCD). To identify particular EF components on which children…

Coch, Donna, Ed.; Fischer, Kurt W., Ed.; Dawson, Geraldine, Ed. – Guilford Publications, 2010
This volume brings together leading authorities from multiple disciplines to examine the relationship between brain development and behavior in typically developing children. Presented are innovative cross-sectional and longitudinal studies that shed light on brain-behavior connections in infancy and toddlerhood through adolescence. Chapters…

Spencer, Linda J.; Tomblin, J. Bruce – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2009
This study investigated the phonological processing skills of 29 children with prelingual, profound hearing loss with 4 years of cochlear implant experience. Results were group matched with regard to word-reading ability and mother's educational level with the performance of 29 hearing children. Results revealed that it is possible to obtain a…

Letter Processing and the Formation of Memory Representations in Children with Naming Speed Deficits
Conrad, Nicole J.; Levy, Betty Ann – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2007
The ability to recognize letter patterns within words as a single unit is important for fluent reading. This skill is based on previously established memory representations of common letter patterns. The ability to form these memory representations may be impaired in some poor readers, particularly readers with naming speed deficits (NSD). This…
