Structural Components of Single Word Recognition: Activation of Orthographic, Meaning, and Phonological Processors.

Willson, Victor L.; Rupley, William H.

Reading Research and Instruction, v32 n4 p33-45 Sum 1993

Examines the roles of orthographic, meaning, and phonological processors in children's word recognition. Finds that graphemic complexity accounted for the highest amount of variance at each level, with other variables shifting across age in a pattern consistent with a stage development model of word recognition.
