Gonzalez, Juan E. Jimenez; Gonzalez, Carlos J. Alvarez; Monzo, Adelina Estevez; Hernandez-Valle, Isabel – Learning Disabilities: Research & Practice, 2000
This study examined effects of intrasyllabic units on lexical decision performance in 15 normal reading (NR) children and 15 children with reading disabilities (RD) in a transparent orthography (Spanish). Findings suggest that Spanish children with RD do not use correspondences based on higher level units (onsets and rimes) in visual word…

Such phonological defects can be addressed both preventively and remedially using procedures that are fundamentally different from typical…

Word recognition data from identical and fraternal twins and siblings (N=172) indicated that the phonological coding deficit of children with reading disabilities was highly heritable. Orthographic coding was not significantly heritable. Poor readers with low IQs were superior to similar reading but average IQ readers in phonological coding.…
