Improving Phonological Awareness and Word Reading in a Later Learned Alphabetic Script.
Cheung, Him
Cognition, v70 n1 p1-26 Feb 1999
Examined the effects of phonological-skill training on consonantal-phoneme deletion and word-reading performance in early and middle adolescent Chinese readers who were literate in English. Found significant improvements in both activities for younger but not older participants, with follow-up analyses suggesting that language-proficiency differences underlie the age effect. (Author/KB)
