Mano, Quintino R.; Guerin, Julia M. – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2018
Print exposure is an important causal factor in reading development. Little is known, however, of the mechanisms through which print exposure exerts an effect onto reading. To address this gap, we examined the direct and indirect effects of print exposure on silent reading fluency among college students (n = 52). More specifically, we focused on…

Gottardo, Alexandra; Mirza, Amna; Koh, Poh Wee; Ferreira, Aline; Javier, Christine – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2018
As posited by the simple view of reading, listening comprehension and decoding are necessary for reading comprehension. Thus, the present study examined subcomponents of listening comprehension (i.e., vocabulary, morphology, and syntax) and their contributions to reading comprehension. The novel aspect of this study is that rather than examining…

Puranik, Cynthia S.; Patchan, Melissa M.; Lemons, Christopher J.; Al Otaiba, Stephanie – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2017
Despite the poor outcomes for U.S. students on national writing tests, overall research on how to teach writing is sparse, and this scarcity is more pronounced in the early years of beginning to write. In this study 81,200 we present preliminary findings from Year 1 of a 3-year Institute of Education Sciences-funded Goal 2 project aimed at…

Catts, Hugh W.; Herrera, Sarah; Nielsen, Diane Corcoran; Bridges, Mindy Sittner – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2015
The simple view of reading proposes that reading comprehension is the product of word reading and language comprehension. In this study, we used the simple view framework to examine the early prediction of reading comprehension abilities. Using multiple measures for all constructs, we assessed word reading precursors (i.e., letter knowledge,…

Das, Tanusree; Bapi, Raju S.; Padakannaya, Prakash; Singh, Nandini C. – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2011
Functional imaging studies have established cortical networks for reading alphabetic, syllabic and logographic scripts. There is little information about the different cortical areas that participate in reading an alphasyllabary. We use functional brain imaging to study the reading network for Devanagari, an alphasyllabary. Similar to syllabic…

Mellard, Daryl F.; Anthony, Jason L.; Woods, Kari L. – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2012
This study extends the literature on the component skills involved in oral reading fluency. Dominance analysis was applied to assess the relative importance of seven reading-related component skills in the prediction of the oral reading fluency of 272 adult literacy learners. The best predictors of oral reading fluency when text difficulty was…

Rao, Chaitra; Vaid, Jyotsna; Srinivasan, Narayanan; Chen, Hsin-Chin – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2011
Two primed naming experiments tested the orthographic depth hypothesis in skilled biliterate readers of Hindi and Urdu. These languages are very similar on the spoken level but differ greatly in script; Hindi is a highly transparent script, whereas Urdu is more opaque. It was accordingly hypothesized that form-based priming would be greater for…

Kim, Young-Suk; Petscher, Yaacov – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2011
The present study investigated relative contributions of initial status and growth rates of emergent literacy skills (i.e., phonological awareness, letter-name knowledge, vocabulary, and rapid serial naming) to initial status and growth rates of conventional literacy skills (i.e., word reading, pseudoword reading, and spelling) for young Korean…

Dahlin, Karin I. E. – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2011
This study examines the relationship between working memory and reading achievement in 57 Swedish primary-school children with special needs. First, it was examined whether children's working memory could be enhanced by a cognitive training program, and how the training outcomes would relate to their reading development. Next, it was explored how…

Faust, Miriam; Kandelshine-Waldman, Osnat – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2011
The present study used two letter detection tasks, the classic missing letter effect paradigm and a single word versus familiar word compound version of this paradigm, to study bottom-up and top-down processes involved in reading in normally achieving as compared to low achieving elementary school readers. The research participants were children…

Karemaker, Arjette M.; Pitchford, Nicola J.; O'Malley, Claire – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2010
This study examined the extent to which multimedia features of typical literacy learning software provide added benefits for developing literacy skills compared with typical whole-class teaching methods. The effectiveness of the multimedia software Oxford Reading Tree (ORT) for Clicker in supporting early literacy acquisition was investigated…

Tong, Xiuli; McBride-Chang, Catherine – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2010
This study examined the associations of Chinese visual-orthographic skills, phonological awareness, and morphological awareness to Chinese and English word reading among 326 Hong Kong Chinese second- and fifth-graders learning English as a second language. Developmentally, tasks of visual-orthographic skill, phonological awareness, and…

Katzir, Tami; Kim, YoungSuk; Wolf, Maryanne; Kennedy, Becky; Lovett, Maureen; Morris, Robin – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2006
The role of spelling recognition was examined in word reading skills and reading comprehension for dyslexic and nondyslexic children. Dyslexic and nondyslexic children were matched on their raw word reading proficiency. Relationships between spelling recognition and the following were examined for both groups of children: verbal ability, working…

Burnham, Denis – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2003
Investigates the degree to which native speech perception is superior to non-native speech perception. Shows that language specific speech perception is a linguistic rather than an acoustic phenomenon. Discusses results in terms of early speech perception abilities, experience with oral communication, cognitive ability, alphabetic versus…

O'Connor, Rollanda E.; Padeliadu, Susana – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2000
Presents a study where 12 poor readers of first grade were randomly assigned to one of two daily tutoring conditions designed to teach children to read regularly spelled short words by either blending sounds to form words, or cumulative introduction of whole words. Finds no initial difference, but finds different results in delayed posttest one…
