Word list reading fluency is theoretically expected to depend on single word reading speed. Yet the correlation between the two diminishes with increasing fluency, while fluency remains strongly correlated to serial digit naming. We hypothesized that multi-element sequence processing is an important component of fluency. We used confirmatory factor analyses with serial and discrete naming tasks with matched items, including digits, dice, objects, number words, and words, performed by about 100 Greek children in each of Grades 1, 3, and 5. Separable serial and discrete factors emerged across grades, consistent with distinct skill dimensions. Loadings were greater for serial than discrete, suggesting that discrete processing does not fully determine serial processing. Average serial performance differed more than discrete between grades, consistent with improvement beyond single-item speed. Serial word reading aligned increasingly with the serial factor at higher grades. Thus, word reading fluency is gradually dominated by skill in simultaneously processing multiple successive items through different stages (termed “cascading”), beyond automatization of individual words. 相似文献

We examined the cross‐lagged relations between the home literacy environment and literacy skills in Japanese, and whether child's gender, parents' education and child's level of literacy performance moderate the relations. One hundred forty‐two Japanese children were followed from Grades 1 to 2 and assessed on character knowledge, reading fluency and spelling. Their parents responded to a questionnaire assessing the frequency of their teaching and shared reading. Results showed that parent teaching increased and shared reading decreased from Grades 1 to 2. Cross‐lagged path analysis indicated that the literacy skills in Grade 1 were negatively associated with parent teaching in Grade 2. The results further suggested that more educated parents of higher performing children, particularly boys, adjusted their involvement to their children's literacy skills, while less educated parents of lower performing children did not. These findings indicate the importance of parents' sensitivity to their child's performance. What is already known about this topic
- Home literacy environment (HLE) plays an important role in children's literacy acquisition in Western and some East Asian contexts.
- Children's early reading skills can have an impact on later HLE.
- The direction of the relationship between HLE and children's reading skills may change from positive in Kindergarten to negative in Grade 1.
- In line with the findings of previous studies in other languages, Japanese parents adaptively adjust their home literacy activities to their child's literacy skills.
- The effect of children's literacy skills on later shared reading is stronger among boys than among girls.
- More educated parents of higher performing children adjust their involvement to their child's literacy skills, while less educated parents with lower performing children do not.
- We should encourage parents to be sensitive to their child's literacy skills to help them build a foundation that will boost future literacy development.
- This can be particularly true of less educated parents with poorly performing children.
- We should encourage educators to communicate the children's literacy achievement to their parents and also suggest the means by which HLE could be beneficial for their children's literacy development.

A family developmental framework was applied to data from families of children with intellectual disabilities to understand the role of parenting in the path from early adversity to problem behaviors in mid-childhood. Data from 9 months to 11 years tested the Family Stress Model in families of 555 children. Adversarial parenting between 3 and 5 years mediated the path from early adversity (family poverty and maternal psychological distress at nine months) to problem behaviors at 7 and 11 years. Positive parent–child relationship only mediated the path to conduct problems. Multiple mediation was not present. Early adversity impacts both positive parent–child relationship and adversarial parenting between three and five, but the latter is crucial for problem behaviors in mid-childhood. 相似文献

Our research is concerned with the visual representations found in textbooks used for the teaching of the Internet in Greek
secondary schools. Visualization, as both the product and the process of creation, interpretation and reflection upon pictures
and images, is considered here to be very important, as it is the only way students gain insight into the nature and function
of the Internet, its size, complexity and invisibility. Initially, we attempted to analyze and reflect upon school textbooks’
visual interpretations of the Internet. A scheme of categories of visual representations has been identified and reveals the
characteristics of the textbooks’ representations as well as their limitations. Sketch-comics and computer snap-shots are
the more popular types of Vrep, although a considerable number of them cannot be characterized as accurate and few of them
have an explanatory or complementary function in terms of the content presented in the text. We have also explored the impact
on students’ readings of two visual representations in one of the textbooks, used without any caption or textual information.
The phenomenological aspects of the VRep seem to attract students’ attention and create obstacles in conceptualizing the main
idea conveyed in both representations, but when the field of ICT is implied and not clearly portrayed in the VRep, students
face serious problems in recognizing the phenomenon. It seems that it is difficult for an image on its own to paint a thousand
words. 相似文献

The role of digital technology in assessment has received a great deal of attention in recent years. Naturally, technology offers many practical benefits, such as increased efficiency with regard to the design, implementation and scoring of existing assessments. More importantly, it also has the potential to have profound, transformative effects on the field of assessment by facilitating the integration of formative activities with accountability requirements and broadening the range of abilities and the scope of constructs that can be assessed. This article provides an overview of the current state-of-the-art in digital technology-based assessment, with particular reference to advances in the automated scoring of constructed responses, the assessment of complex 21st century skills in large-scale assessments and innovations involving high fidelity virtual reality simulations. Key challenges with respect to each are highlighted before the extent to which digital technology is truly transforming assessment is considered. 相似文献

The present study investigated the direction of the relationship between parental rejection and children’s engagement in bullying and victimization. Using a cross-lagged design, we examined whether (a) bullying and victimization predict an increase in parental rejection six months later, (b) parental rejection predicts an increase in bullying and victimization six months later, and (c) there is a reciprocal association between bullying/victimization and parental rejection. The participants were 846 early adolescents (mean age = 12.63 years) randomly selected from primary and secondary schools in Cyprus and Greece (375 Cypriots, 471 Greek students) and their parents. Children completed a translated version of the Personal Experiences Checklist – (PECK) and the Rejection subscale of the Parental Acceptance/Rejection Questionnaire. The results showed that parental rejection at Time 1 predicted significantly victimization at Time 2. Parental rejection however, was not a significant predictor of bullying. Moreover, bullying and victimization at Time 1 predicted significantly parental rejection at Time 2. These results provide further insight at the theoretical level in as far our understanding of the familial dynamics in bullying victimization and may provide clinical implications in relation to counselling of victimized children and their parents. 相似文献

We evaluated two experimenter-delivered, small-group word reading programs among at-risk poor readers in Grade 1 classes of regular elementary schools using a two-arm, dual-site-matched control trial intervention. At-risk poor word readers (n = 201) were allocated to either (a) Direct Mapping and Set-for-Variability (DMSfV) or (b) Current or Best-Practices small-group reading programs, typically for 10–11 hr over 10 weeks. Students were matched on baseline reading and language abilities, parent demographic measures, and observed regular classroom teaching quality. Results of hierarchical data modeling showed advantages for the DMSfV program (p < .05 for word reading and spelling at posttest and word reading and sentence comprehension at 5-month delayed posttest), with discernible valued added for the DMSfV condition across all follow-up measures. Results support the use of small-group preventative literacy intervention models that teach both direct mapping of grapheme–phoneme correspondences in text and set-for-variability. 相似文献

Longitudinal predictors of reading and spelling across languages varying in orthographic consistency

We examined the longitudinal predictors of nonword decoding, reading fluency, and spelling in three languages that vary in
orthographic depth: Finnish, Greek, and English. Eighty-two English-speaking, 70 Greek, and 88 Finnish children were followed
from the age of 5.5 years old until Grade 2. Prior to any reading instruction, they were administered measures of phonological
awareness, letter knowledge, and rapid naming speed. In Grade 2, they were administered measures of nonword decoding, text-reading
fluency, and spelling. The results showed that the model for nonword decoding in Greek was similar to that of Finnish (both
have consistent grapheme-to-phoneme mappings) while the model for spelling in Greek was similar to that of English (both have
some inconsistent phoneme-to-grapheme mappings). In addition, the models for nonword decoding and spelling in Finnish were
similar, because Finnish is consistent in both directions. Letter knowledge dominated the prediction in each language. The
predictable role of orthographic consistency on literacy acquisition is discussed. 相似文献
