Is phonological short-term memory related to phonological analysis stages in auditory sentence processing?

Phonological distinctiveness and phonological short term memory

Short-term memory, phonological processing, and reading ability.

Verbal short-term memory deficits are a common characteristic of children with reading problems and may markedly increase the difficulty of learning to read. Previous work suggests that the basis of the short-term memory deficit may involve limitations in phonetic coding. In the present paper, a series of experiments are reviewed which examined the role of phonological processes in short-term m...

Short-term phonological memory in preschool children.

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to design a short-term memory test, to describe quantitative performance in typically language developing children and to verify the relationship between the non-words repetition and oral phonological measure. METHODS The participants included 136 typically language developing children aged from 3 years to 6 years and 11 months old in this study, who were...

Phonological short term memory in conduction aphasia

Background: Within cognitive neuropsychological models, conduction aphasia has been conceptualized as a phonological buffer deficit. It may affect the output buffer, the input buffer, or both. The phonological output buffer is a short-term storage, responsible for the short-term maintenance of phonological units until their articulation, as well as for phonological and morphological composition...

Phonological typicality and sentence processing.

In studies of language, it is widely accepted that the form of a word is independent of its meaning and syntactic category. Thus, the relationship between phonological form and grammatical class would not be expected to affect reading time. However, Farmer et al. have now shown that the phonological typicality of a noun or verb influences how rapidly it is read. This finding has implications fo...
