Naming Speed and Phonological Awareness as Predictors of Reading Development.
Kirby, John R.; Parrila, Rauno K.; Pfeiffer, Shannon L.
Journal of Educational Psychology, v95 n3 p453-64 Sep 2003
Investigates how well kindergarten phonological awareness (PA) and naming speed (NS) account for reading development to Grade 5. PA was most strongly related to reading in the first two years of school, and NS's initially weaker relationship increased with grade level. Children with weak PA and slow NS were most likely to develop reading difficulties by Grade 5. (Contains 43 references, 9 tables, 4 figures, and 2 appendixes.) (GCP)
