Thomas, Sian E.; Grindle, Corinna F.; Totsika, Vaso – British Journal of Special Education, 2023
Many students with learning disabilities find it difficult to acquire basic reading skills. This is even more of a challenge for students who are non-vocal. The purpose of the present study was to pilot the use of Headsprout Early Reading© (HER©), an online reading programme, with four non-vocal students with a severe learning disability (SLD),…

Samuels, Jody; Decker, Scott L. – Psychology in the Schools, 2023
Reading fluency (RF) involves the automaticity of many distinct reading skills (e.g., pacing, word recognition, phonological awareness) and allows cognitive resources to be allocated to higher-order reading skills (e.g., comprehension, synthesis). Early identification of students at-risk for RF deficits is critical, but many screeners require a…

Schoefl, Martin; Seifert, Susanne; Steinmair, Gabriele; Weber, Christoph – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2023
Rapid automatized naming (RAN) powerfully predicts word-level reading fluency in the first 2 years of school as well as further reading development. Here, we analyze various RAN stimuli (objects and digits) and oral/silent word reading (OWR/SWR) modalities to find feasible measures for predicting early reading development. The RAN performances of…

Mann, Wolfgang; O'Neill, Rachel; Watkins, Freya; Thompson, Robin L. – Deafness & Education International, 2023
This pilot study explored effects of hearing loss on deaf children's reading comprehension in an online context. Eighteen deaf secondary students, ages 12-14 years (11 with British Sign Language as their dominant language, seven with English as their dominant language) engaged in an online research comprehension task. Six age-matched hearing…

Daza Gonzalez, María Teresa; Phillips-Silver, Jessica; Maurno, Nahuel Gioiosa; García, Laura Fernández; Ruiz-Castañeda, Pamela – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2023
Purpose: To explore the effectiveness of a multisensory program integrating visual, kinesthetic, and vibrotactile information to train phonological and syntactic reading abilities in prelingually deaf children between 6 and 10 years of age. Method: We examined whether the multisensory phonological training in combination with syntactic training…

Patel, Nirmal; Nagpal, Pooja; Shah, Tirth; Sharma, Aditya; Malvi, Shrey; Lomas, Derek – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: Readability metrics provide us with an objective and efficient way to assess the quality of educational texts. We can use the readability measures for finding assessment items that are difficult to read for a given grade level. Hard-to-read math word problems can put some students at a disadvantage if they are behind in their literacy…

Ayodeji Ibukun; Younglong Kim; Sarinporn Chaivisit; Thanh Do – Distance Learning, 2023
This study explored a relationship between internet access and literacy using quantitative data regarding students' reading performance. Data used in this study included reading scores provided by the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) and the internet access data made available by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and…

Sung Hee Lee; Aja McKee – Autism & Developmental Language Impairments, 2023
Background and aims: eBooks have become a ubiquitous presence in many classrooms today. Yet, empirical evidence on literacy development has not been well produced, especially for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This mixed-method case study aimed to explore how four children with ASD interact with ebooks and printed books with parents…

Krause, Jennifer L. – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Reading aloud to students is a common practice among teachers of young children. While reading aloud is a research-based instructional strategy with many potential benefits, studies show that not all teachers read aloud to their students, and read-aloud use tends to decline as students age. The purpose of this study was to explore the current…

Taylor, Ellie K.; Abdurokhmonova, Gavkhar; Romeo, Rachel R. – Mind, Brain, and Education, 2023
Childhood socioeconomic status (SES) is one of the strongest predictors of student reading outcomes, and these disparities have persisted for decades. Relatedly, two underlying skills that are required for successful reading--oral language and executive function (EF)--are also the two neurocognitive domains most affected by SES. In this review, we…

Denisha Yvette Bolden – ProQuest LLC, 2023
A disproportionate number of students from low socio-economic statuses (SES) are enrolled in special education as students with specific learning disabilities (SLD). Despite resources provided through special education, only a small percentage of students are exited before secondary school. This instrumental case study investigated the variables…

Zheng Zhang; Peng Peng – Child Development, 2023
With a focus on within-person effects, this study investigated mutualism among academic skills (reading, math, science) and between those skills and verbal working memory in a general population sample and groups with high or low skills from Grades 2 to 5 (2010-2016, N = 859-9040, age 6.27-13.13 years, 49% female, ethnically diverse). Mutualism…

Émilie Laplante; Valérie Geraghty; Emalie Hendel; René-Pierre Sonier; Dominic Guitard; Jean Saint-Aubin – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
When readers are asked to detect a target letter while reading for comprehension, they miss it more frequently when it is embedded in a frequent function word than in a less frequent content word. This missing-letter effect has been used to investigate the cognitive processes involved in reading. A similar effect, called the missing-phoneme effect…

Patricia F. Vadasy; Elizabeth A. Sanders – Grantee Submission, 2023
This is the second in series of studies designed to test direct and conditional effects of embedded cognitive practice in phonics instruction. Students identified in winter of kindergarten with minimal alphabet knowledge were randomly assigned to one of two conditions: explicit phonics (Plain) (n = 28) or explicit phonics with embedded cognitive…
