A large number of studies dealing with phonology have focused their attention on phonological production at the expense of phonological perception which provides the foundation stone for phonological production. This study focuses on phonological perception at phonemic level. The purpose of the study is helping beginning learners improve their perception of the English phonemes which are confus...

Introduction The ability to rapidly process speech sounds is integral not only for processing other’s speech, but also auditory of one’s own which allows maintenance accuracy. Deficits in rapid have been demonstrated autistic individuals, particularly those with language impairment. We examined relation performance on a battery verbal communication measures determine aspects were associated cor...

To construct their first lexicon, infants must determine the relationship between native phonological variation and the meanings of words. This process is arguably more complex for bilingual learners who are often confronted with phonological conflict: phonological variation that is lexically relevant in one language may be lexically irrelevant in the other. In a series of four experiments, the...

The ability of dyslexic children with or without phonological problems to process simultaneous and sequential visual information was assessed using two tasks requiring the oral report of simultaneously or sequentially displayed letter-strings. The two groups were found to exhibit a simultaneous visual processing deficit but preserved serial processing skills. However, the impairment in simultan...

Linguistic labels affect inductive generalization; however, the mechanism underlying these effects remains unclear. According to one similarity-based model, SINC (similarity, induction, naming, and categorization), early in development labels are features of objects contributing to the overall similarity of compared entities, with early induction being similarity based. If this is the case, the...

Our programme of research aims to find answers to the following questions. How do children acquire their phonetic and phonological systems? What types of developmental delays and disorders occur? Why do such problems occur? In this paper we add to the growing body of evidence that children can acquire phonological systems before they are able to master the phonetic skills needed to convey the c...

This study synthesizes 79 standardized mean-change differences between control and treatment groups from 17 independent studies, investigating the effect of morphological interventions on literacy outcomes for students with literacy difficulties. Average total sample size ranged from 15 to 261 from a wide range of grade levels. Overall, morphological instruction showed a significant improvement...
