The interplay between digital media, shared book reading and sleeping problems in early language development
The main goal of this study was to explore the impact of digital media (screen exposure and video calls) on children’s early language development by exploring its interrelationships with shared book reading and children’s sleeping problems. The cross-sectional data of 362 families with children aged 30 to 41 months old were collected and a structural equation analysis was used as a multivariate analysis technique to explore the complexity of the …
Living the first years in a pandemic
This retrospective study provides insights on linguistic development in exceptional circumstances assessing 378 children (between 2;6 and 3;6) who lived their first years during the COVID-19 pandemic and comparing it with normative data collected before this period ( CDI-III-PT; Cadime et al., 2021). It investigates the extent to which linguistic development was modulated by a complex set of factors, including sex, maternal education, book readin…
Cross‐Lagged Relations Among Linguistic Skills in European Portuguese
Research has widely demonstrated the contribution of word reading, listening comprehension skills, and oral reading fluency to reading comprehension performance. However, the existence of reciprocal relations among these skills has been investigated less frequently. The authors examined the directionality of the relations among reading comprehension, listening comprehension, word reading, and oral reading fluency in Portuguese elementary school s…
The development of vocabulary and grammar
The goals of this study were to analyze the growth and stability of vocabulary, mean length of the three longest utterances (MLLUw), and sentence complexity in European Portuguese-speaking children aged 1;4–2;6, to explore differences in growth as a function of personal and family-related variables, and to investigate the inter-relationships among the three language dimensions. Fifty-one European Portuguese-speaking toddlers were longitudinally a…
Early lexical development
The aim of this study was to analyse the existence of differences in lexical development as a function of day care attendance and maternal education. Data were collected using the MacArthur–Bates Communicative Development Inventory: Words and Sentences. The reports of 2084 toddlers were analysed. The results for toddlers older than 24 months indicated that those from mothers with higher educational levels produced a higher number of words in all …
Homework self-regulation strategies
This study investigates the measurement invariance as a function of gender and educational level of the Homework Behavior Questionnaire (Ktpc), an instrument developed to assess students' homework self-regulation strategies. A sample of 1400 elementary and middle school students was used. Results of confirmatory factor analysis indicated a good fit of the theoretical model composed of three dimensions: planning, execution and evaluation of the ho…
Parents’ reports of lexical and grammatical aspects of toddlers’ language in European Portuguese
The results from a large-scale study on toddlers’ language acquisition in European Portuguese are presented. Toddlers’ lexical and grammatical competencies were assessed using the MacArthur–Bates Communicative Development Inventory: Words and Sentences. The results, based on 3012 reports completed by parents, indicate an increase in the lexical size and on five measures of grammatical development (production of regular morphology, irregular morph…
Lexical, morphological and syntactic development in toddlers between 16 and 30 months old
The main aims of this study were to investigate the relationship between the lexical size and the emergence of morphological and syntactic markers in toddlers between the ages of 16 and 30 months and to compare these results between Galician and European Portuguese. Parents of 3012 Portuguese toddlers and those of 1081 Galician toddlers completed the MacArthur–Bates Communicative Development Inventory: Words and Sentences. The results indicated t…
Compreensão de textos
Na literatura têm sido discutidos diversos fatores que podem influenciar a dificuldade das tarefas de compreensão de textos e, consequentemente, o desempenho dos sujeitos na avaliação. O objetivo deste estudo é perceber se a dificuldade das tarefas de avaliação da compreensão de textos varia em função da modalidade da tarefa de avaliação (oral versus escrita), do tipo de texto (narrativo versus informativo) e do tipo de compreensão avaliado pelas…
O ensino explícito da compreensão da leitura. Análise do impacto de um programa de intervenção
Neste artigo apresenta-se o programa Aprender a compreender torna mais fácil o saber, destinado a alunos do 3o e 4o anos de escolaridade, que tem como objetivo principal o desenvolvimento das competências de compreensão da leitura, de estratégias de leitura e de metacompreensão. O programa foi implementado com 1.142 alunos do 4o ano de escolaridade. Na avaliação dos resultados, recorreu-se a um design de grupo único com pré e pós-teste. Os result…
An application of the Rasch model to reading comprehension measurement
An effective reading comprehension measurement demands robust psychometric tools that allow teachers and researchers to evaluate the educational practices and track changes in students’ performance. In this study, we illustrate how Rasch model can be used to attend such demands and improve reading comprehension measurement. We discuss the construction of two reading comprehension tests: TRC-n, with narrative texts, and TRC-e, with expository text…
