Gutierrez de Blume, Antonio P.; Montoya Londoño, Diana Marcela; Daset, Lilián; Cuadro, Ariel; Molina Delgado, Mauricio; Morán Núñez, Olivia; García de la Cadena, Claudia; Beltrán Navarro, María Beatríz; Arias Trejo, Natalia; Ramirez Balmaceda, Ana; Jiménez Rodríguez, Virginia; Puente Ferreras, Aníbal; Urquijo, Sebastián; Arias, Walter Lizandro; Rivera, Laura Inés; Schulmeyer, Marion; Rivera-Sanchez, Jesus – Metacognition and Learning, 2023
A deeper understanding of what factors influence metacognition has never become more pressing than in today's digital era, in which information flows constantly and quickly. To this end, the present study explored the role of culture in mediating how individuals experience metacognitive phenomena. For this purpose, the International Group on…

Ye, Yanyan; McBride, Catherine; Yin, Li; Cheang, Leo Man-Lit; Tse, Chun Yu – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2022
Copying characters presented previously (delayed copying) is an important skill in Chinese literacy acquisition. The relations of delayed copying and a set of literacy-related skills (including vocabulary knowledge, rapid automatized naming, phonological awareness, morphological awareness, and orthographic awareness), visual-orthographic judgment,…

Lancaster, Hope Sparks; Li, Jing; Gray, Shelley – Journal of Research in Reading, 2021
Background: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between selective visual attention (SVA), reading decoding, listening comprehension and reading comprehension in children with and without a reading disorder. Methods: We used longitudinal data from the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children. We split children into four…

Pezzino, Anne-Sophie; Marec-Breton, Nathalie; Gonthier, Corentin; Lacroix, Agnès – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: Multiple factors impact reading acquisition in individuals with reading disability, including genetic disorders such as Williams syndrome (WS). Despite a relative strength in oral language, individuals with WS usually have an intellectual disability and tend to display deficits in areas associated with reading. There is substantial…

Šilonová, Viera; Klein, Vladimír; Rochovská, Ivana – Problems of Education in the 21st Century, 2021
The research focuses on the diagnostics and stimulation of socially disadvantaged children of a preschool age, which is a crucial component of inclusive education. The aim of the research was to experimentally verify through input and output orientation diagnostics the effectiveness of the stimulation program for 5 to 6 year old socially…

Liu, Sisi; Liu, Duo – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2020
This study examined whether visual-spatial attention could predict Chinese reading achievement longitudinally beyond some well-established reading precursors. A total of 257 second- and third-grade Hong Kong Chinese-speaking children participated in the study. Visual-spatial attention was measured by visual search tasks, which assessed the skills…

Altvater-Mackensen, Nicole; Mani, Nivedita; Grossmann, Tobias – Developmental Psychology, 2016
Recent studies suggest that infants' audiovisual speech perception is influenced by articulatory experience (Mugitani et al., 2008; Yeung & Werker, 2013). The current study extends these findings by testing if infants' emerging ability to produce native sounds in babbling impacts their audiovisual speech perception. We tested 44 6-month-olds…

Ivarsson, Jonas – Frontline Learning Research, 2017
This study looks at the practice of thoracic radiology and follows a group of radiologists and radiophysicists in their efforts to find, discuss, and formulate issues or troubles ensuing the implementation of a new radiographic imaging technology. Based in the theoretical tradition of ethnomethodology it examines the local endogenous practices…

De Witt, M. W.; Lessing, A. C. – Early Child Development and Care, 2018
Many South African children struggle in acquiring literacy and reading skills. It seems as if caregivers may be missing an important aspect in guiding children's emergent reading development. The question is whether there are underlying concepts needed for emergent literacy and the acquisition of reading skills. The nature of the reading process…

McVeigh, Claire; Wylie, Judith; Mulhern, Gerry – International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism, 2019
Working memory (WM) is a recognised component of executive function and has undergone scrutiny in terms of bilingual and monolingual performance comparisons. Research to date, however, has not consistently replicated the presence of bilingual advantage. The present study examined short-term (STM) and WM in immersion-educated children and a matched…

Bosse, Marie-line; Chaves, Nathalie; Largy, Pierre; Valdois, Sylviane – Journal of Research in Reading, 2015
The self-teaching hypothesis suggests that knowledge about the orthographic structure of words is acquired incidentally during reading through phonological recoding. The current study assessed whether visual processing skills during reading further contribute to orthographic learning. French children were asked to read pseudowords. The whole…

Connell, Louise; Lynott, Dermot – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2016
Perceptual simulations are unconscious and automatic, whereas perceptual imagery is conscious and deliberate, but it is unclear how easily one can transfer perceptual information from unconscious to conscious awareness. We investigated whether it is possible to be aware of what one is mentally representing; that is, whether it is possible to…

Ullrich, Dieter; Ullrich, Katja; Marten, Magret – Cogent Education, 2017
Speech-/language-impaired (SL)-children face problems in school and later life. The significance of "non-cognitive, social-emotional skills" (NCSES) in these children is often underestimated. Aim: Present study of affected SL-children was assessed to analyse the influence of NCSES for long-term school education. Methods: Nineteen…

Kyttälä, Minna; Aunio, Pirjo; Lepola, Janne; Hautamäki, Jarkko – Educational Psychology, 2014
The aim of this study was to analyse the role of verbal and visuo-spatial working memory (WM) and language skills (vocabulary, listening comprehension) in predicting preschool and kindergarten-aged children's ability to solve mathematical word problems presented orally. The participants were 116 Finnish-speaking children aged 4-7?years. The…

Liu, Duo; Chen, Xi; Chung, Kevin K. H. – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2015
This study examined the relation between the performance in a visual search task and reading ability in 92 third-grade Hong Kong Chinese children. The visual search task, which is considered a measure of visual-spatial attention, accounted for unique variance in Chinese character reading after controlling for age, nonverbal intelligence,…
