Chen, Tianxu; Xu, Xintong; Hao, Yu; Ke, Sihui Echo – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2023
Guided by the Simple View of Reading (SVR considers reading comprehension as a product of decoding and listening comprehension) and the self-teaching hypothesis applied to Chinese (Li et al. in Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal 24(3):252-263), this research examined (1) whether the SVR is applicable to L2 morphosyllabic Chinese;…

Li, Miao; Chan, Jessica; Kirby, John R. – Annals of Dyslexia, 2023
Summary writing is an important tactic for learning from text and the summaries provide information on students' comprehension and learning processes. We investigated the nature of the summaries produced by bilingual adolescents, and whether their summaries were related to their reading abilities in their first and second languages. In each…

Wolters, Alissa P.; Kim, Young-Suk Grace; Szura, John William – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2022
We examined the relation between reading prosody and reading comprehension, using a systematic review and meta-analysis to estimate the strength of the relation and to understand whether the strength of the relation varies by prosody feature (adult-like contour, F0 sentence-final declination, grammatical pauses, ungrammatical pauses, prosody…

Roembke, Tanja C.; Hazeltine, Eliot; Reed, Deborah K.; McMurray, Bob – Developmental Psychology, 2021
Many middle-school students struggle with basic reading skills. One reason for this might be a lack of automaticity in word-level lexical processes. To investigate this, we used a novel backward masking paradigm, in which a written word is either covered with a mask or not. Participants (N = 444 [after exclusions]; n[subscript female] = 264,…

Leah Myers Zimmermann – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Morphological processing is the use of morphological structure during word reading. This study examined the role of morphological processing in automaticity in word reading processes and asked whether automatic morphological processing made a unique contribution to decoding, oral reading fluency, and reading comprehension outcomes of middle school…

Pedrazzi, Janet – ProQuest LLC, 2023
When students struggle with reading at the elementary level, their needs are typically met with interventions that focus on word recognition and decoding skills. This same intervention approach is often used to address students who struggle with reading at the middle-school level. The middle school struggling reader accumulates deficits from…

Miller, Gabrielle J.; Lewis, Barbara A. – Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 2022
Purpose: The primary aim of this study was to compare decoding and literacyrelated skills of children with suspected childhood apraxia of speech (sCAS) to children with reading disorders (RD) and no history of speech sound disorder (RD-no SSD) to determine if the groups differ in decoding and the endophenotypes that contribute to RD. We also…

Smith, Jamie A.; Bell, Sherry Mee; Philippakos, Zoi A.; Park, Yujeong – Reading & Writing Quarterly, 2023
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between student perceptions of a "good reader" and their reading performance. A total of 100 students (grades 1-8) who attended an after-school program for low-income youth completed the Student Perceptions of a Good Reader Scale (SPGRS) that includes two subscales:…

Spencer, Mercedes; Richmond, Miranda C.; Cutting, Laurie E. – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2020
In the present study, we used latent variable structural equation modeling to investigate relations between oral language, decoding, and two components of executive function (cognitive flexibility and working memory) and reading comprehension in a sample of 271 native English-speaking 9.00- to 14.83-year-olds. Results of the mediation analyses…

Papadimitriou, Vassilios; Argyropoulos, Vassilios – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2022
Purpose: The main objective of the present study was to examine the effect of word length, word frequency and number of syllables on graphemic errors during a text-reading task via the braille code. Method: Thirty students with severe visual impairments participated in the present study. They were invited individually to read aloud a number of…

Parkin, Jason R. – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2021
The simple views of reading (SVR) and writing (SVW) provide useful foundations for the interpretation of psychoeducational achievement batteries. Research has established that oral language, decoding, and transcription explain significant variance in reading comprehension and written composition, respectively. However, the specific task demands of…
