Spelling of Stop Consonants After /s/ by Children and Adults.
Treiman, Rebecca
Applied Psycholinguistics, v6 n3 p261-82 Sep 1985
Describes two experiments which examined the way in which kindergarteners, first graders, and adults spell syllables like /spa/,/sta/, and /ska/. The proportion of voiced spellings was found to decrease with reading level. The nonstandard spellings were fairly prevalent among children, but almost nonexistent among adults. (SED)
