The Use of Speech Feedback by Normal and Disabled Readers in Computer-Based Reading Practice.

Van Daal, Victor H. P.; Reitsma, Pieter

Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, v5 n3 p243-59 Sep 1993

Compares disabled readers and normal beginning readers on requesting help in the form of speech feedback during computer-based word reading. Finds that both disabled readers and beginners were not sensitive to word difficulty, and disabled readers remained dependent on the speech feedback. Discusses how profits of the procedures related to word decoding skill and metacognitive monitoring. (RS)
