Word and Context in Reading Development: A Test of the Interactive-Compensatory Hypothesis.
Goldsmith-Phillips, Josephine
Journal of Educational Psychology, v81 n3 p299-305 Sep 1989
The reliance of 12, 18, and 22 children in grades 2, 4, and 6, respectively, on context- versus word-based information was studied. Factor analysis of error scores yielded a structure reflecting 3 information sources: graphophonic information; context to identify words; and comprehension monitoring. Age differences in decoding strategies were apparent. (TJH)
