Examination of the Intrasyllable Phonemic Discrimination Deficit in Children with Reading Disabilities.
Hurford, David P.; And Others
Contemporary Educational Psychology, v17 n1 p83-88 Jan 1992
The ability of 78 disabled and nondisabled second, third, and fourth graders to discriminate between syllables that were vowels and syllables beginning with liquid and plosive consonants was studied. The results suggest that children with reading disabilities experience a deficit in processing phonemic information within syllables. (SLD)
