Zipoli, Richard P., Jr.; Merritt, Donna D. – Preventing School Failure, 2017
Many students with a history of speech or language impairment have an elevated risk of reading difficulty. Specific subgroups of these students remain at risk of reading problems even after clinical manifestations of a speech or language disorder have diminished. These students may require reading intervention within a general education system of…

Siegel, Linda S. – International Journal for Research in Learning Disabilities, 2019
Dyslexia and other learning disabilities are not being properly recognized and treated in our educational system or society at large. Unrecognized and untreated learning disabilities represent a serious social and economic problem, not only to the individual but to society as a whole. For example, antisocial behavior, as seen in prison populations…

Conners, Frances A.; Loveall, Susan J.; Moore, Marie S.; Hume, Laura E.; Maddox, Christopher D. – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2011
The self-teaching hypothesis suggests that children learn orthographic structure of words through the experience of phonologically recoding them. The current study is an individual differences analysis of the self-teaching hypothesis. A total of 40 children in Grades 2 and 3 (7-9 years of age) completed tests of phonological recoding, word…

Moore, Danielle M.; Porter, Melanie A.; Kohnen, Saskia; Castles, Anne – Australasian Journal of Special Education, 2012
The focus of this paper is on the assessment of the two main processes that children must acquire at the single word reading level: word recognition (lexical) and decoding (nonlexical) skills. Guided by the framework of the dual route model, this study aimed to (1) investigate the impact of item characteristics on test performance, and (2)…

Yates, Mark – Cognition, 2010
The least supported phoneme refers to the phoneme position within a word with which the fewest phonological neighbors overlap. Recently, it has been argued that the number of neighbors coinciding with the least supported phoneme is a critical determinant of pronunciation latencies. The current research tested this claim by comparing naming…

Phillips, Beth M.; Lonigan, Christopher J.; Wyatt, Marcy A. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2009
This study examined concurrent and longitudinal relations for the "Get Ready to Read!" (GRTR) emergent literacy screener. This measure, within a battery of oral language, letter knowledge, decoding, and phonological awareness tests, was administered to 204 preschool children (mean age = 53.6, SD = 5.78; 55% male) from diverse…

Macaruso, Paul; Shankweiler, Donald – Reading Psychology, 2010
The simple view of reading (Gough & Tunmer, 1986) proposes that listening comprehension and decoding, properly measured, can account for all of the variance in reading comprehension. We assessed the simple view in community college students. In addition to listening comprehension and decoding, we included measures of oral vocabulary, nonverbal…

Lee, Lay Wah – Annals of Dyslexia, 2008
Malay is an alphabetic language with transparent orthography. A Malay reading-related assessment battery which was conceptualised based on the International Dyslexia Association definition of dyslexia was developed and validated for the purpose of dyslexia assessment. The battery consisted of ten tests: Letter Naming, Word Reading, Non-word…

Genisio, Vanessa; Bastien-Toniazzo, Mireille – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2003
Two tasks of word identification were proposed to children in their last year of upper preschool classes. The results show that identification is not based on an holistic processing but on an analytic one: some letters are enough, especially the first ones. Moreover, their order does not matter. During this period where reading is visuo-semantic…

Flores, Margaret M.; Shippen, Margaret E.; Alberto, Paul; Crowe, Lee – Journal of Direct Instruction, 2004
This study examined the efficacy of systematic and explicit instruction in phonic decoding for 6 elementary students with moderate intellectual disabilities. A multiple probe across behaviors with embedded changing conditions design was employed in order to analyze the effect of Direct Instruction on teaching the following skills with regard to…
