Some Common Causes of Literacy and Numeracy.
Bulcock, J. W.; Beebe, Mona J.
Canadian Journal of Education, v6 n3 p19-44 1981
Examines "primacy of speech perception" hypothesis. Finds covariation between reading and numeration for 94 fourth graders explained by phonetic, syntactic, and semantic cueing strategies as mediated by school-dependent basic language skills. Elasticities analysis demonstrates reading and numeration were not responsive to children's cueing strategy or basic skills performance changes. (NEC)
