Sex Differences in White Matter Diffusivity in Children with Developmental Dyslexia
Despite the high prevalence of developmental dyslexia in the U.S. population, research remains limited and possibly biased due to the overrepresentation of males in most dyslexic samples. Studying biological sex differences in the context of developmental dyslexia can help provide a more complete understanding of the neurological markers that underly this disorder. The current study aimed to explore sex differences in white matter diffusivity in …
How you read affects what you gain
graders) rely on two sources of information during an oral word reading task - print-speech correspondences and semantic imageability - before and after a phonologically-weighted intervention. We show that children who relied more on print-speech regularities and less on imageability pre-intervention had better intervention gains. In parallel, children who over the course of the intervention exhibited greater increases in their reliance on print-…
Effective intervention for adolescents with reading disabilities
Adolescents with reading disability (RD) participated in a randomized controlled trial evaluating the efficacy of a multiple-component reading intervention with motivational components (PHAST). A total of 514 youth in 6th, 7th, and 8th grade formed instructional groups (4–8) that were randomly assigned to one of three conditions—one of two PHAST interventions (additional comprehension or fluency training) or a remedial reading control condition. …
Individual differences in learning the regularities between orthography, phonology and semantics predict early reading skills
Bringing the Bottom Billion into Basic Literacy
Close to one billion people in the world do not have basic literacy skills. A key challenge is reaching children in the midst of circumstances that make a traditional school-based approach impractical. This chapter will describe a cross-disciplinary, mobile technology approach to literacy education. The Curious Learning approach distributes research-based, English literacy content on mobile devices to children without access to an adequate school…

Reading fluency
Becoming a fluent and automatic reader in the early elementary school years
S The goals of this study were to (a) develop an empirically based model regarding the development of fluent and automatic reading in the early elementary school years and (b) determine whether fluent text‐reading skills provided benefits for reading comprehension beyond those accounted for by fluent word decoding. First‐, second‐, and third‐grade children completed a series of reading tasks targeting word and nonword processing, text reading, sp…
Patterns of Language Preference Among Bilingual (Filipino–English) Boys
The pattern of language preference in a simultaneous bilingual (Filipino–English) population was examined, including changes in the pattern of preference over time. Participants were 81 Filipino boys (Mean age=6 years, 2 months) recruited from two schools in the Philippines. A language preference checklist was completed by the parents of the children at the beginning of kindergarten (n=81) and the beginning of first grade (n=58). Factor analysis …
