The Interactions of Vocabulary, Phonemic Awareness, Decoding, and Reading Comprehension
Carlson, Elaine; Jenkins, Frank; Li, Tiandong; Brownell, Mary
Journal of Educational Research, v106 n2 p120-131 2013
The authors used data from a large, national sample to examine the interaction of various literacy measures among young children with disabilities. Using structural equation modeling, they examined the relationships among measures of phonemic awareness, decoding, vocabulary, and reading comprehension. Child and family factors, including sex, severity of disability, race/ethnicity, household income, and mother's education were used as covariates. The model supported the notion of 2 unique paths to reading comprehension, one through decoding and a second through vocabulary. (Contains 3 tables, 1 figure, and 2 notes.)
