Further Evidence that Orthographic Rime Usage in Nonword Reading Increases with Word-Level Reading Proficiency.

Bowey, Judith A.; Underwood, Narelle

Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v63 n3 p526-62 Dec 1996

Two experiments showed increased use of orthographic rime correspondence in nonword reading tasks from second to fourth grade, with no further increase from fourth to sixth grade. The use of orthographic rime correspondences in reading ambiguous non-words was more strongly associated with word-level reading skills than was the use of grapheme-phoneme correspondence. (KDFB)
