Orthographic Depth and Its Impact on Universal Predictors of Reading A Cross-Language Investigation

TL;DR: Results from a sample of 1,265 children in Grade 2 showed that phonological awareness was the main factor associated with reading performance in each language, however, its impact was modulated by the transparency of the orthography, being stronger in less transparent orthographies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predictors of developmental dyslexia in European orthographies with varying complexity

TL;DR: Phoneme deletion and RAN were strong concurrent predictors of developmental dyslexia, while verbal ST/WM and general verbal abilities played a comparatively minor role, demonstrating how orthographic complexity exacerbates some symptoms of Dyslexia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cognitive mechanisms underlying reading and spelling development in five European orthographies

TL;DR: This article analyzed concurrent predictions of phonological processing (awareness and memory) and rapid automatized naming (RAN) for literacy development in a rural area of the United States and found that the cognitive underpinnings of reading and spelling are universal or language/orthography-specific.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cognitive Development of Fluent Word Reading Does Not Qualitatively Differ Between Transparent and Opaque Orthographies

TL;DR: This article investigated the cognitive dynamics of reading fluency of different word types in Grades 1-4 in three orthographies differing in degree of transparency (Hungarian Dutch and Portuguese) and found that the relative strength of the contributions of phonological awareness and rapid naming to word reading fluence shifted as a function of reading expertise.
