Training Preschool Children to Recognize Phonemes in Words

Marsh, George; Mineo, R. James

Journal of Educational Psychology, 69, 6, 748-53, Dec 77

Using a forced-choice matching-to-sample procedure five factors were varied: position of phoneme; contrast between words; type of phoneme; redundant visual cue; and allophonic variation. Performance improved significantly after four days of training for all but allophonic variation. Redundant visual cue greatly improved performance during training but did not transfer significantly.
