Relations between reading and writing have been studied extensively but the less is known about the developmental nature of their interrelations. This study applied latent change score modeling to investigate longitudinal relations between reading and writing skills at the word, sentence and text levels. Latent change score models were used to compare unidirectional pathways (reading-to-writing...

A full diversity block space-time code over two transmit antennas and two symbol periods is introduced. The proposed method results in substantial performance improvement over the widely used scheme of Alamouti [1] and at the same time allows for a simple maximum likelihood decoding algorithm.

Dynamic assessment (DA) of word reading measures learning potential for early reading development by documenting the amount of assistance needed to learn how to read words with unfamiliar orthography. We examined the additive value of DA for predicting first-grade decoding and word recognition development while controlling for autoregressive effects. Additionally, we examined whether predictive...

This is another in a series of invited tutorial, status and survey papers that are being regularly solicited by the PTGIT Committee on Special Papers. We invited Profess01 Fano to commit to paprr his elegant but, unelaborate explanation of the principles of sequential decoding, a scheme which is currently contending for a position as the most practical implementation to dale of Shannon’s theory...

This paper shows that quantum information-set-decoding attacks are much faster than non-quantum information-set-decoding at-

Phonological tasks are highly predictive of reading development but their complexity obscures the underlying mechanisms driving this association. There are three key components hypothesised to drive the relationship between phonological tasks and reading; (a) the linguistic nature of the stimuli, (b) the phonological complexity of the stimuli, and (c) the production of a verbal response. We iso...
