Phonological Representations of Adult Poor Readers: An Investigation of Specificity and Stability.
Dietrich, Jean A.; Brady, Susan A.
Applied Psycholinguistics, v22 n3 p383-418 Sep 2001
Studied the phonological representations of adult less skilled readers compared to those of adult skilled readers and adolescent reading-age controls. Participants were tested on a paired confrontation naming and spelling task. Results confirm that there are weaknesses in the phonological representations of known and new words for adult less skilled readers, with observable consequences for spelling. (Author/VWL)
