What Is Phonological Awareness?

McBride-Chang, Catherine

Journal of Educational Psychology, v87 n2 p179-92 Jun 1995

Measures of IQ, verbal short-term memory, speech perception, and phonological awareness were administered to 136 3rd and 4th graders. Structural equation modeling revealed that IQ, speech perception, and verbal short-term memory each contributed unique variance to the phonological awareness construct. Results underscore the importance of speech perception. (SLD)
