The Role of Reading by Analogy in First Grade Finnish Readers.
Holopainen, Leena; Ahonen, Timo; Lyytinen, Heikki
Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, v46 n1 p83-98 Mar 2002
Developed a computer-based assessment of the use of beginning and end analogies based on clue syllables of five different syllable structures to examine the role of analogy in an orthographically regular language, Finnish. Results for 47 children suggest that, unlike the effect seen in English, reading in Finnish is based on single phoneme/letter analogies. (SLD)
