Smail Layes; Kamel Layes – Arab Journal of Applied Linguistics, 2023
The purpose of this follow-up study was to determine the specific contribution of phonological processing abilities, including phonological awareness (PA), rapid automatized naming (RAN) and verbal short-term memory (VSTM), as well as visual perception (VP), in word reading accuracy. A sample of 62 native Arabic speaking children from Grade 1…

Segal, Osnat; Kishon-Rabin, Liat – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2019
Arabic stress is predictable, varies across words, and does not have a contrastive role, whereas, Hebrew stress although nonpredictable, carries contrastive value. Stress processing was assessed in speakers of the two languages at three processing levels: discrimination, short-term memory, and metalinguistic awareness. In Experiment 1, Arabic…

Wealer, Cyril; Fricke, Silke; Loff, Ariana; Engel de Abreu, Pascale M. J. – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2022
The study explores whether foundational skills of reading and spelling in preschool (age 5-6) predict literacy skills cross-linguistically in an additional language in Grade 1 (age 6-7). A sample of linguistically diverse preschool children completed tasks of phonological awareness, letter-sound knowledge, verbal-short term memory, rapid…

Lahti-Nuuttila, Pekka; Laasonen, Marja; Smolander, Sini; Kunnari, Sari; Arkkila, Eva; Service, Elisabet – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2021
Background: The role of domain-general short-term memory (STM) in language development remains controversial. A previous finding from the HelSLI study on children with developmental language disorder (DLD) suggested that not only verbal but also non-verbal STM for temporal order is related to language acquisition in monolingual children with DLD.…

Kim, Young-Suk Grace; Cho, Jeung-Ryeul; Park, Soon-Gil – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2018
We examined the relations of short-term memory (STM), metalinguistic awareness (phonological, morphological, and orthographic awareness), and rapid automatized naming (RAN) to word reading in Korean, a language with a relatively transparent orthography. STM, metalinguistic awareness, and RAN have been shown to be important to word reading, but the…

Park, Hae In; Solon, Megan; Henderson, Carly; Dehghan-Chaleshtori, Marzieh – Modern Language Journal, 2020
While an elicited imitation test (EIT) has been widely used as a measure of oral proficiency in second language acquisition (SLA) research, it is still unclear the extent to which memory capacity impacts EIT performance. In light of this gap, the present study sought to clarify the nature of elicited imitation by examining the relative…

Aidman, Eugene; Jackson, Simon A.; Kleitman, Sabina – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2019
Performance on many decision-making tasks is underpinned by metacognitive monitoring, cognitive abilities, and executive functioning. Fatigue-inducing conditions, such as sleep loss, compromise these factors, leading to decline in decision performance. Using a 40-hr sleep deprivation protocol, we examined these factors and the resulting decision…

Zebib, Racha; Tuller, Laurice; Hamann, Cornelia; Abed Ibrahim, Lina; Prévost, Philippe – First Language, 2020
Sentence repetition (SR) tasks have been shown to be excellent indicators of Developmental Language Disorder (DLD). However, there is still no consensus about which core ability they measure: language vs. Verbal Short-Term Memory (VSTM) and Verbal Working Memory (WM). Moreover, very few studies have investigated whether variables predicting SR…

Purser, Harry R. M.; Jarrold, Christopher – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2013
Individuals with Down syndrome tend to have a marked impairment of verbal short-term memory. The chief aim of this study was to investigate whether phonemic discrimination contributes to this deficit. The secondary aim was to investigate whether phonological representations are degraded in verbal short-term memory in people with Down syndrome…

Akram, Bita; Min, Wookhee; Wiebe, Eric; Mott, Bradford; Boyer, Kristy Elizabeth; Lester, James – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2018
A key affordance of game-based learning environments is their potential to unobtrusively assess student learning without interfering with gameplay. In this paper, we introduce a temporal analytics framework for stealth assessment that analyzes students' problem-solving strategies. The strategy-based temporal analytic framework uses long short-term…

Swanson, H. Lee; Kong, Jennifer; Petcu, Stefania D.; Asencio Pimentel, Monica Fiorella – Exceptional Children, 2020
This study investigated the prevalence of latent classes at risk for reading or math disabilities in elementary-age children whose first language is Spanish. To this end, children (N = 394) in Grades 1, 2, and 3 were administered a battery of vocabulary, reading, math, and cognitive measures in both Spanish and English. Three important findings…

Marsh, John E.; Yang, Jingqi; Qualter, Pamela; Richardson, Cassandra; Perham, Nick; Vachon, François; Hughes, Robert W. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2018
Task-irrelevant speech impairs short-term serial recall appreciably. On the interference-by-process account, the processing of physical (i.e., precategorical) changes in speech yields order cues that conflict with the serial-ordering process deployed to perform the serial recall task. In this view, the postcategorical properties (e.g., phonology,…

Huo, Shuting; Zhang, Xiao; Law, Yin Kum – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2021
Drawing on Geary's (1995) evolution-based model of cognitive and academic development, this study investigated the relation between biologically primary skills (vocabulary, executive functions, and visual-spatial processing) and subsequent word reading and calculation. It also examined the extent to which these relations were mediated by…

Dotan, Dror; Brutman, Nadin – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2022
Representing the base-10 structure of numbers is a challenging cognitive ability, unique to humans, but it is yet unknown how precisely this is done. Here, we examined whether and how literate adults represent a number's full syntactic structure. In 5 experiments, participants repeated number-word sequences and we systematically varied the order…

Cunningham, Anna J.; Burgess, Adrian P.; Witton, Caroline; Talcott, Joel B.; Shapiro, Laura R. – Developmental Science, 2021
We reconcile competing theories of the role of phonological memory in reading development, by uncovering their dynamic relationship during the first 5 years of school. Phonological memory, reading and phoneme awareness were assessed in 780 phonics-educated children at age 4, 5, 6 and 9. Confirmatory factor analyses demonstrated that phonological…
