Abstract: | Rapid serial naming tasks are frequently used to explain variance in reading skill. However, the construct being measured
by rapid naming is yet undetermined. The Phonological Processing theory suggests that rapid naming relates to reading because
of similar demands of access to long-term stored phonological representations of visual stimuli. Some researchers have argued
that isolated or discrete-trial naming is a more precise measure of lexical access than serial naming, thus it is likely that
any shared variance between these two formats can be attributed to similar lexical access demands. The present study examined
whether there remained any variance in reading ability that could be uniquely explained by the rapid naming task while controlling
for isolated naming. Structural equation modeling was used to examine these relations within the context of the phonological
processing model. Results indicated that serial naming uniquely predicted reading, and the relation was stronger with isolated
naming controlled for, suggesting that isolated naming functioned as a suppressor variable in the relation of serial naming
with reading. |
