Self-teaching in normal and disabled readers 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This study set out to investigate the self-teaching of good and poor readers in pointed Hebrew – a highly regular orthography. Four groups of children (three groups in Grades 4 to 6, and one group in Grade 2) were included in this study; poor readers with large discrepancies between IQ and reading (dyslexics), IQ-nondiscrepant poor readers (non-dyslexic or garden-variety poor readers), chronological-age matched normal readers, and a group of younger normal readers matched to the older garden-variety group on both reading and mental age. It was hypothesized that primary deficits in phonological recoding (decoding) would impair the identification of novel target words (fictitious names of fruits/towns/stars/coins, etc.) appearing in text, which, in turn, would lead to deficient orthographic memory for target spellings. Alternative predictions were derived with regard to the degree of orthographic deficiency. According to the compensatory processing hypothesis, orthographic learning was expected to be relatively less impaired among disabled readers compared to normal readers. The alternative dissociation hypothesis, on the other hand, predicts that disabled readers orthographic learning would be significantly more impaired than that of normal readers. Neither hypothesis was supported. Impaired orthographic learning, commensurate with levels of target decoding success, was evident in the post-test spelling and orthographic choices of both groups of poor readers. Indeed, a close link was observed between levels of target word decoding and the acquisition of orthographic information among all three older groups of children. No qualitative differences between dyslexics and garden-variety poor readers emerged in patterns of self-teaching. While the data from the three older groups supported a model of developmental delay rather than deviance, findings from the younger reading-age/mental-age controls revealed startling qualitative divergence in orthographic learning. No statistically reliable evidence was obtained for orthographic learning in these younger beginning readers who displayed an essentially surface pattern of non-lexical reading. A hybrid orthographic sensitivity hypothesis was proposed to account for these data, according to which an initially surface-style of word reading engendered by a highly regular orthography gives way to a highly specialized print-specific (orthographic) processing advantage that develops in the course of the second school year as an outgrowth of a critical volume of print experience. 相似文献

The present study examined factors that influence the process of learning to read in a second language. The Hebrew reading
comprehension skills of 68 Russian-speaking children (mean age 7 years 6 months) were screened at the start of Grade 2. From
this sample, 40 participants were selected: 20 successful learners and 20 unsuccessful learners. These two groups were then
tested on a wide range of language skills (e.g., phonological processing, vocabulary, syntactic and morphological awareness)
in both languages (Hebrew and Russian) and reading skills in Hebrew (e.g., reading speed and accuracy).
Two factors, level of spoken Hebrew and phonological awareness deficits in both languages, were significant. Phonological
awareness difficulties constituted the key factor associated with poor decoding whereas insufficient mastery of spoken Hebrew
was important in the case of reading comprehension. An interesting dissociation was also found in our poor readers between
impaired phonological awareness and other unimpaired phonological processing abilities such as oral pseudoword repetition
and working memory. These findings suggest that, in addition to poor spoken L2 proficiency, poor readers are characterized
more by a metalinguistic rather than a linguistic deficit in their native tongue. 相似文献

Significant differences in self‐correction rates between good and poor readers are a well‐established finding. However, previous research has failed to control text difficulty. Self‐correction rates among good and poor readers were compared in a reading level design which controlled text difficulty. No significant differences were found between the groups when reading identical passages at equivalent error rates. Furthermore, self‐correction rates correlated with reading accuracy but not with reading comprehension. It is argued that prior reports of significant differences in self‐correction rates between good and poor readers do not substantiate the claim that self‐correction behaviours tap factors that play a causal role in promoting reading acquisition. 相似文献

Abstract Controversy surrounds the influence that caffeine has on accuracy and cognitive performance in precision activities such as shooting and archery. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of two doses of caffeine on shooting performance, reaction time, and target tracking times in the sport of clay target shooting. A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled design was undertaken by seven elite male shooters from the double-trap discipline. Three intervention trials (2 mg caffeine · kg?1 body mass (BM); 4 mg caffeine · kg?1 BM; placebo) were undertaken, in which shooters completed four rounds per trial of 50 targets per round. Performance accuracy (score) and digital video footage (for determination of reaction time and target tracking times) were gathered during competition. Data were analysed using repeated-measures analysis of variance. No differences in shooting accuracy, reaction time or target tracking times among the three intervention trials or across the four rounds within each intervention were observed (P > 0.05). The results indicate that ingestion of ≤4 mg caffeine · kg?1 BM does not provide performance benefits to elite performers of clay target shooting in the double-trap discipline. 相似文献

Critical media literacy is not an option 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This article explores the theoretical underpinnings of critical media literacy and analyzes four different approaches to teaching
it. Combining cultural studies with critical pedagogy, we argue that critical media literacy aims to expand the notion of
literacy to include different forms of media culture, information and communication technologies and new media, as well as
deepen the potential of literacy education to critically analyze relationships between media and audiences, information and
power. A multiperspectival approach addressing issues of gender, race, class and power is used to explore the interconnections
of media literacy, cultural studies and critical pedagogy. In the interest of a vibrant participatory democracy, educators
need to move the discourse beyond the stage of debating whether or not critical media literacy should be taught, and instead
focus energy and resources on exploring the best ways for implementing it.

Word recognition and basic cognitive processes among reading-disabled and normal readers in Arabic 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This study investigated word identification inArabic and basic cognitive processes inreading-disabled (RD) and normal readers of thesame chronological age, and in younger normalreaders at the same reading level. The studyfocused on the word identification processes ofphonological decoding and orthographicprocessing and the cognitive processes ofsyntactic and morphological awareness, workingmemory, and visual processing. RD children werecompared with normal readers on a battery oftests developed in Arabic on the basis of thoseavailable in English and Hebrew. The presentresults revealed deficiencies among the RD childrenin phonological decoding, in contrast torelative strengths in orthographic processing. These data were consistent with English-languagefindings. The analysis of basiccognitive processes indicated significantdeficiencies in morphology, working memory, andsyntactic and visual processing, with the mostsevere deficiencies observed for phonologicalawareness. The results are discussed in lightof international RD findings and the nature ofArabic orthography. 相似文献

The phonological-core variable-orthographic differences (PCVOD) model [van der Leij, & Morfidi (2006). Journal of Learning Disabilities, 39, 74–90] has been proposed as an explanation for the heterogeneity among dyslexic readers in their profiles of reading-related
subskills. The predictions of this model were investigated in a sample of 72 Dutch secondary school students (dyslexics and
controls). First, the PCVOD assumption was confirmed that phonological processing and orthographic competence are independent
contributors to the prediction of reading fluency and spelling. Among the phonological processing tasks, phonological recoding
explained substantial unique variance, but not phonemic awareness or rapid serial naming. Next, the dyslexic readers were
divided into two subgroups based on high (ORTH+) and low levels (ORTH−) of orthographic competence. Both subgroups performed below controls on all measures tapping phonological processing, reading
and spelling but the ORTH+ group performed as well as non-disabled controls on Dutch and English orthographic choice. As predicted by the model, there
were no differences between the subgroups on the tasks that depend on phonological processing, with or without reading. There
were differences on Dutch word reading fluency and spelling. Furthermore, the ORTH+ subgroup outperformed ORTH− on tasks demanding speeded word processing such as ‘flashed’ presentation. This finding was independent of lexicality (words
or pseudowords), language (Dutch or English) or response mode (lexical decision or typing), but restricted to silent reading.
This supports the view that the ORTH+ subgroup is better at identifying larger orthographic units. There was no indication of differences between the subgroups
in reading experience. Our data, therefore, support the PCVOD model.

This study examined the viva experiences of 87 social science PhD graduates from three Irish higher education institutions through a questionnaire that assessed outcome, preparation, conduct and post-viva. The majority were awarded their PhD with minor corrections, considered their viva as a summative assessment, and emphasised its purpose as authentication, examination and defence. Most felt well prepared yet few had experienced a ‘mock viva’ or viva workshop. Even those with minor corrections identified aspects of the viva for improvement. The study recommends that academic development programmes should incorporate assessment literacy for PhD students and supervisors and the need for evaluation of graduates’ viva experiences. 相似文献

In a previous study [Schwartz et al. (2005). Written Language and Literacy, 8, 179–207] we showed that early literacy in Russian (L1) facilitated decoding acquisition in Hebrew (L2) among Russian-Hebrew
first graders. The present study examined two alternative explanations for this finding. The first account concerns the general
benefits of an early start in literacy. The second relates to the specific meta-linguistic insights engendered by early exposure
to a fully fledged orthography—Russian. We therefore compared two groups who had acquired literacy prior to the onset of schooling:
bi-literate bilinguals (Russian L1 literates and Hebrew L2 learners) (n = 26) and early-literacy monolinguals (Hebrew-speaking monolinguals) (n = 18). The research was conducted in two stages. First, linguistic, meta-linguistic and cognitive tasks in Hebrew were administered
to all children and in Russian to the bilinguals at the beginning of the first grade. Next, reading and writing skills in
Hebrew were assessed at the end of the first grade. Bi-literate bilinguals showed superior levels of phonological awareness
on an initial phoneme isolation task in Hebrew compared to other three groups. In addition, the bi-literate bilinguals were
found to be superior to the early-literacy monolinguals on measures of word and pseudoword accuracy, which are known to depend
heavily on phonological processing efficiency, but not on fluency and spelling measures, which are more reliant on stored
orthographic information. This pattern of outcomes was attributed to the facilitating effects of an orthography characterized
by a fully fledged alphabet, in contrast to Hebrew’s primarily consonantal orthography, as well as the complex syllabic structure
of Russian. 相似文献
