Relationship of Rapid Naming Ability and Language Analysis Skills to Kindergarten and First-Grade Reading Achievement.
Blachman, Benita A.
Journal of Educational Psychology, v76 n4 p610-22 Aug 1984
Language analysis tasks (segmentation and rhyming) and rapid automatized naming tasks (objects, colors, and letters) were found to tap different linguistics-processing components in both kindergarteners and first graders. Children who could analyze letter names were more likely to be among the better readers at the end of first grade. (Author/BS)
