Examining the role of the visuospatial sketchpad in children's math calculation skills using Baddeley and Hitch's model of working memory
Math difficulties (MDs) occur in about 3-7 % of children and have been associated with academic, health, and occupational challenges. To date, findings about the role of working memory in MDs have been conflicting. The Automated Working Memory Assessment Battery (AWMA), which assesses all components of Baddeley and Hitch's model of working memory, was used to investigate which component of the model was most related to math calculation skills in …

The Role of Psycholinguistic Skills in Reading Acquisition
THE PURPOSE of this study was to investigate the role of speech-sound segmentation, blending, and discrimination in reading acquisition. These psycholinguistic skills were examined in children who learned to read prior to formal instruction in school, in comparison with an age-matched group of nonreaders, and a group of older children reading at the same level. None of the skills assessed appeared to be true prerequisites to beginning reading. Ho…
