Pumfrey, P. D.; Fletcher, J.

Journal of Research in Reading, v12 n2 p114-30 Sep 1989

Examines syntactic, semantic and grapho-phonic miscues made by early readers of varying ability. Finds that (1) passage complexity affects use of syntactic and semantic cues; (2) high and above average students' miscue quality deteriorates as text complexity increases; and (3) higher word recognition scores relate to effective use of grapho-phonic miscues.
