Linguistic Precocity and the Development of Reading: The Role of Extralinguistic Factors.

Dale, Philip S.; And Others

Applied Psycholinguistics, v16 n2 p173-87 Jun 1995

Examined the language skills of 21 6-year olds selected for linguistic precocity as toddlers, finding that verbal abilities and reading achievement remained high from age 2 through 6. Also found that phonological awareness appeared to emerge as a consequence, rather than a cause, of early reading. (31 references) (MDM)
