Levesque, Kyle C.; Breadmore, Helen L.; Deacon, S. Hélène – Journal of Research in Reading, 2021
A defining feature of language lies in its capacity to represent meaning across oral and written forms. Morphemes, the smallest units of meaning in a language, are the fundamental building blocks that encode meaning, and morphological skills enable their effective use in oral and written language. Increasing evidence indicates that morphological…

Namba, Shushi; Kabir, Russell Sarwar; Matsuda, Kiyoaki; Noguchi, Yuka; Kambara, Kohei; Kobayashi, Ryota; Shigematsu, Jun; Miyatani, Makoto; Nakao, Takashi – Reading Psychology, 2021
Reading literature contributes to the development of language skills and socioemotional competencies related to empathic responding. Despite implications for improving measures of empathy used by practitioners interested in reading behavior and their applications to teaching empathic skills through literature, extensions to the ability to express…

van Schijndel, Marten; Linzen, Tal – Cognitive Science, 2021
The disambiguation of a syntactically ambiguous sentence in favor of a less preferred parse can lead to slower reading at the disambiguation point. This phenomenon, referred to as a garden-path effect, has motivated models in which readers initially maintain only a subset of the possible parses of the sentence, and subsequently require…

Eekhof, Lynn S.; Kuijpers, Moniek M.; Faber, Myrthe; Gao, Xin; Mak, Marloes; van den Hoven, Emiel; Willems, Roel M. – Discourse Processes: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2021
This article explores the relationship between low- and high-level aspects of reading by studying the interplay between word processing, as measured with eye tracking, and narrative absorption and liking, as measured with questionnaires. Specifically, we focused on how individual differences in sensitivity to lexical word characteristics--measured…

Kouppanou, Anna – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2021
This paper is concerned with Catherine Malabou's reading of Heidegger's forgotten triad of change; indeed, in connection to her own notion of the 'plasticity of meaning'. The paper focuses on the emergence of meaning, on its figuration, and on the moment during which a new image of meaning comes to be seen. In light of this pursuit, the paper will…

Massol, Stéphanie; Grainger, Jonathan – Developmental Science, 2021
The sentence superiority effect observed with skilled adult readers has been taken to reflect parallel processing of word identities and the rapid construction of a preliminary syntactic structure. Here we examined if such processing is already present in primary school children in Grade 3 (average age 8.9 years). Children saw sequences of four…

Xuan Zang; Yu Ka Wong; Kit-ling Lau – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2025
There is a growing number of children learning to read in bilingual environments, yet research on the uniqueness of reading acquisition in these bilingual children, particularly L1 majority bilinguals, is limited. With a sample size of 690 4th-grade students, this study investigated predictors influencing L1 Chinese reading in Chinese-English…

YiHsuan Wood; Jeffrey J. Green; Ellen Knell; Yu Liu – Language Awareness, 2025
This study used eye-tracking to investigate the real-time processing of phonetic and semantic radicals (components of Chinese characters that give clues to their pronunciation and meaning) by intermediate-level university Chinese foreign language (CFL) learners. Additionally, the study examined how knowledge and awareness of radicals affect…

Chutima Bunparita; Pennapa Riabroi – LEARN Journal: Language Education and Acquisition Research Network, 2025
This mixed-methods study examined how narrow reading affects L2 undergraduate students of forestry and agriculture in terms of their reading comprehension, vocabulary growth, and perceptions of their language knowledge and skills. To collect the data, three instruments were employed, namely pre- and post-tests, online questionnaires, and journal…

Wade-Woolley, Lesly; Wood, Clare; Chan, Jessica; Weidman, Sarah – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2022
Referring to the "vital parts" of speech that do not appear in print, E. B. Huey (1908/1968) described prosody in reading as "the rise and fall of pitch and inflection, the hurrying here and slowing there, what we have called the melody of speech." In this paper, we discuss the role prosody plays in reading, contextualized in…

Verhoeven, Ludo; Perfetti, Charles – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2022
In this article, we provide a cross-linguistic perspective on the universals and particulars in learning to read across seventeen different orthographies. Starting from the assumption that reading reflects a learned sensitivity to the systematic relationships between the surface forms of words and their meanings, we chose a broad group of…

Mackey, Margaret – Journal of Literacy Research, 2022
This article draws on Philip Barnard's model of the interactions between theory and practice, between basic and applied research, to investigate the paradox of reading as an experience both private and public. It uses internal reader experience as a starting point for exploration, evoking the concept of a readerly sense of presence as a selection…

Ristic, Bojana; Mancini, Simona; Molinaro, Nicola; Staub, Adrian – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
Although research in sentence comprehension has suggested that processing long-distance dependencies involves maintenance between the elements that form the dependency, studies on maintenance of long-distance subject-verb (SV) dependencies are scarce. The few relevant studies have delivered mixed results using self-paced reading or…

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…
