The Development of Spelling Procedures in French-Speaking, Normal and Reading-Disabled Children: Effects of Frequency and Lexicality.
Alegria, Jesus; Mousty, Philippe
Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v63 n2 p312-38 Nov 1996
Compared spelling procedures of normal and reading-disabled French-speaking children matched for reading achievement. Found that, at the lowest reading level, word frequency effects were absent and phonological context effects on rule application were seen only in normal readers. As reading ability improved, word frequency and phonological context effects on rule application increased. (KDFB)
