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…

Christian Tarchi; Ruth Villalón; Nina Vandermeulen; Lidia Casado-Ledesma; Anna Paola Fallaci – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2024
In university settings, writing argumentative essays from reading conflicting source texts is a common task for students. In performing this synthesis task, they must deal with conflicting claims about a controversial issue as they develop their own positions. Argumentative synthesis is characterized by writers' back-and-forth moves between…

Bjarte Furnes; Åsa Elwér; Stefan Samuelsson; Rebecca Treiman; Richard K. Olson – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2024
We investigated the stability and developmental interplay of word reading and spelling in samples of Swedish (N = 191) and U.S. children (N = 489) followed across four time points: end of kindergarten, grades 1, 2, and 4. Cross-lagged path models revealed that reading and spelling showed moderate to strong autoregressive effects, with reading…

This study included 119 typically developing (TD) and 107 Chinese children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) by using a pre- and…

Shi, Yuchen – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2020
This study investigates the possibility that solitary dialog, in which individuals construct in writing a hypothetical dialogic argument, may more fully reveal individual skill achievement in argument than do conventional argumentive essays. A sample of 54 11-12-year-old Chinese students individually composed such written dialogs, subsequent to…

Wolff, Ulrika; Gustafsson, Jan-Eric – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2022
This study examined the effects of early phonological training on emergent phonological and reading skills. Children (N = 364) were randomly assigned in small groups to a phonological training group (n = 117), or a control group (n = 247) including both a non-phonological training group and a non-trained control group. The phonological training…

Wu, Lin; Valcke, Martin; Van Keer, Hilde – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2021
Reading strategies have been documented as beneficial facilitators for readers to understand text; their potential efficacy, however, has not yet adequately assessed among struggling readers in the context of a large number of students below grade level at secondary schools internationally. Using a pretest-posttest control group experimental…

The main purpose of this longitudinal research was to study the effects of transcription skills, text generation skills and self-regulation on Icelandic children's writing, compare their effects on two different text genres and see if it changes with age, from second to fourth grade.

Chen, Si; Chen, Chen; Wen, Peizhi – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2022

Portex, Marine; Hélin, Carolane; Ponce, Corinne; Foulin, Jean-Noël – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2018
In left-to-right writing cultures, spontaneous mirror writing of letters and digits in preliterate children appears more frequently on left-than right-facing characters. A compelling theory drawn on neuropsychological evidence of mirror generalization suggests that children resort to a right-orienting/writing rule when learning to write. The aim…

Gunnerud, Hilde Lowell; Foldnes, Njål; Melby-Lervåg, Monica – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2022
Bilingualism appears to be related to poor language and reading comprehension in the instructional language (L2). However, in the long term, an early age of second language acquisition (AoA) may produce higher levels of second language skills than a later onset of L2 exposure. Most studies on school-aged second language learners (L2 learners)…
