Steacy, Laura M.; Petscher, Yaacov; Elliott, James D.; Smith, Kathryn; Rigobon, Valeria M.; Abes, Daniel R.; Edwards, Ashley A.; Himelhoch, Alexandra C.; Rueckl, Jay G.; Compton, Donald L. – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2021
We modeled word reading growth in typically developing (n = 118) and children with dyslexia (n = 20), Grades 2-5, across multiple exposures to 30 words. We explored the facilitative versus inhibitory effects of exposures to differential mixes of words that support high- versus low-frequency vowel pronunciations. One training corpus contained a…
