Children's Sensitivity to Syllables, Onsets, Rimes, and Phonemes.
Treiman, Rebecca; Zukowski, Andrea
Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v61 n3 p193-215 Apr 1996
Noting that in previous research, the linguistic status of the unit has often been confounded by its size, five experiments were conducted to provide a better test of the linguistic status hypothesis. Results supported the linguistic status hypothesis by indicating that effects of linguistic level on phonological sensitivity cannot always be reduced to effects of unit size. (TJQ)
