Phonological coding during reading.

Phonological representation of words in working memory during sentence reading.

The temporal dynamics of a visual target word's phonological representation was examined by presentation of an irrelevant spoken companion word when the participant's eyes reached the target's location during sentence reading. The spoken word was identical, similar, or dissimilar to the phonological specification of the visual target. All spoken words increased the time spent viewing the target...

Phonological activation during reading: Time-course or Conscious Awareness?

Past studies have shown that nonwords homophonic to words can produce phonological priming (klip -CLIP), even when the primes are presented in a masked fashion (Ferrand & Grainger, 1992). This suggests that phonological codes are automatically activated and used in written word recognition. Here, we raise the possibility that in these experiments, subjects might have occasionally been aware of ...

Deaf children's use of phonological coding: evidence from reading, spelling, and working memory.

Two groups of deaf children, aged 8 and 14 years, were presented with a number of tasks designed to assess their reliance on phonological coding. Their performance was compared with that of hearing children of the same chronological age (CA) and reading age (RA). Performance on the first task, short-term recall of pictures, showed that the deaf children's spans were comparable to those of RA co...

Reading achievement in relation to phonological coding and awareness in deaf readers: a meta-analysis.

The relation between reading ability and phonological coding and awareness (PCA) skills in individuals who are severely and profoundly deaf was investigated with a meta-analysis. From an initial set of 230 relevant publications, 57 studies were analyzed that experimentally tested PCA skills in 2,078 deaf participants. Half of the studies found statistically significant evidence for PCA skills a...
