The nature of phonological processing and its causal role in the acquisition of reading skills

TL;DR: The causal role of phonological abilities in the acquisition of reading skills was explored in this article, where it was shown that phonological recoding in lexical access and phonetic receding in working memory are causally related to the ability to read.

Learning to Read Words: Theory, Findings, and Issues

TL;DR: The process of learning sight words involves forming connections between graphemes and phonemes to bond spellings of the words to their pronunciations and meanings in memory, enabled by phonemic awareness and by knowledge of the alphabetic system, which functions as a powerful mnemonic to secure spellings in memory.

To read or not to read: A meta-analysis of print exposure from infancy to early adulthood.

TL;DR: It is concluded that shared book reading to preconventional readers may be part of a continuum of out-of-school reading experiences that facilitate children's language, reading, and spelling achievement throughout their development.

Phonemic knowledge and learning to read are reciprocal: A longitudinal study of first grade children.

TL;DR: The relationship between phonemic knowledge and learning to read was found to be reciprocal in a longitudinal study of first grade readers as mentioned in this paper, where children were tested at four points throughout the year on tasks of syn thesis (phoneme blending) and analysis (deletion and tapping).

The Psychology of Reading

TL;DR: The Psychology of Reading as mentioned in this paper applies principles of cognitive psychology to understand reading and what the skilled reader does, and the authors conclude that reading cannot be understood simply as associative learning, that is, the learning of an arbitrary code connecting written symbols and their sounds.

Evidence for phonemic recoding in visual word recognition

TL;DR: In this paper, strong evidence was obtained from three experiments to support the hypothesis that the recognition of a visually presented word entails phonemic (auditory/articulatory) recoding, and the latencies obtained in a task of deciding whether a visual presented word was English or nonsense supported two additional hypotheses: (a) phonemic recoding occurs during the quantization stage; and (b) it is the phonemic form of the stimulus and of the representations of the entries in the internal lexicon that are compared to achieve the recognition.

1. Segmentation of the spoken word and reading acquisition

TL;DR: Liberman et al. as discussed by the authors conducted a study to determine how well children can identify the number of phonemic segments in spoken words and how this compares with their ability to deal similarly with syllables.
