Are the Relations of Rapid Automatized Naming with Reading and Mathematics Accuracy and Fluency Bidirectional? Evidence from a 5-Year Longitudinal Study with Chinese Children
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed

Georgiou, George K.; Wei, Wei; Inoue, Tomohiro; Deng, Ciping – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2020
Despite the widespread use of rapid automatized naming (RAN) tasks in reading and mathematics research, little is known about the direction of their relation. Thus, in this longitudinal study, we examined the direction of the relation between RAN and reading/mathematics accuracy and fluency. One-hundred and eighty-three Grade 1 Chinese children…

Altani, Angeliki; Protopapas, Athanassios; Katopodi, Katerina; Georgiou, George K. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2020
This study aimed to examine (a) the developing interrelations between the efficiency of reading individually presented words (i.e., isolated word recognition speed) and the efficiency of reading multiword sequences (i.e., word list and text reading fluency); (b) whether serial digit naming, indexing the ability to process multi-item sequences,…

Protopapas, Athanassios; Katopodi, Katerina; Altani, Angeliki; Georgiou, George K. – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2018
Word list reading fluency is theoretically expected to depend on single word reading speed. Yet the correlation between the two diminishes with increasing fluency, while fluency remains strongly correlated to serial digit naming. We hypothesized that multi-element sequence processing is an important component of fluency. We used confirmatory…

Examining the Effects of PASS Cognitive Processes on Chinese Reading Accuracy and Fluency
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed

Wang, Xiaochen; Georgiou, George K.; Das, J. P. – Learning and Individual Differences, 2012
The purpose of this study was to examine the contribution of PASS (Planning, Attention, Simultaneous, and Successive) processes to Chinese reading accuracy and fluency. One-hundred-forty Grade 3 to 5 Mandarin-speaking children were assessed on measures of PASS processes, phonological awareness, and orthographic knowledge. A year later they were…

Georgiou, George K.; Manolitsis, George; Zhang, Xiao; Parrila, Rauno; Nurmi, Jari-Erik – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2013
We examined the developmental dynamics between task-avoidant behavior and different literacy outcomes, and possible precursors of task-avoidant behavior. Seventy Greek children were followed from Grade 4 until Grade 6 and were assessed every year on reading fluency, spelling, and reading comprehension. The teachers assessed the children's…

Georgiou, George K.; Parrila, Rauno; Kirby, John R. – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2009
We examined (a) how rapid automatized naming (RAN) components--articulation time and pause time--predict reading accuracy and reading fluency in Grades 4 and 5, and (b) what cognitive-processing skills (phonological processing, orthographic processing, or speed of processing) mediate the RAN-reading relationship. Sixty children were followed from…
