Nagy, William; Berninger, Virginia; Abbott, Robert; Vaughan, Katherine; Vermeulen, Karin
Journal of Educational Psychology, v95 n4 p730-42 Dec 2003
Structural equation modeling evaluated the contribution of phonological, orthographic, morphological, and oral vocabulary factors to word reading, spelling, and reading comprehension outcomes in at risk 2nd and 4th graders. For 2nd-grade children, morphology contributed uniquely to reading comprehension, and oral vocabulary and orthography contributed uniquely to word reading. For 4th-grade children morphology and word reading were correlated. (Contains 60 references and 6 tables.) (GCP)
