Relation of Phonological Awareness to Reading Disability in Children and Adults.
Pratt, Anne C.; Brady, Susan
Journal of Educational Psychology, v80 n3 p319-23 Sep 1988
Two studies involving 30 third graders and 26 adults, respectively, assessed whether success at learning to read is related to awareness of phonological structure of spoken language. Differences in phonological awareness appeared to account for much of the variance between good and poor readers at both age levels. (TJH)
