Phases of development in learning to read words by sight

Abstract: One of the great mysteries confronting literacy researchers is how mature readers are able to read written materials so rapidly and fluently yet with full comprehension (Adams, 1990; Barron, 1986; Chall, 1983;Perfetti, 1985; Rayner and' Pollatsek, 1989). A capability that has proven central in explaining this feat is the ability to read single words rapidly and automatically by sight (LaBerge and Samuels, 1974). Readers are able to look at a word and immediately recognize its meaning without expending any… Show more

“…According to the small-units first view, the earliest phonological unit involved in early reading is the phoneme, particularly because children are introduced to print, either informally, by being exposed to letter names (which generally carry their letter sounds), or formally by learning letter-sound correspondences (Duncan, Seymour, & Hill, 1997;Ehri, 1995;Stuart & Coltheart, 1988). These then give way to larger units as children become more proficient at recognizing positional, morphemic, and other context-sensitive sublexical units that become inferred from the lexicon and consolidated as units with growing expertise (Ehri, 1997).…”

“…Según Ehri (1995Ehri ( , 2006, las explicaciones basadas en el aprendizaje previo de las configuraciones visuales de las palabras para reconocerlas a través de la ruta léxica es insuficiente, porque recordar la forma ortográfica de cada palabra nueva que se adquiere de forma arbitraria plantea grandes exigencias en la memoria. En su opinión, es más plausible la hipótesis de que una vez que el niño y la niña han tenido conocimientos de las conexiones entre grafemas y fonemas, utilizarán estas claves para acceder a la representación ortográfica de la palabra almacenada en su memoria.…”

“…"Decoding first" accounts (Ehri, 1995;Ehri et al, 2013;Nunes et al, 1997b) predict that younger children will show only effects of orthographic/phonological processing, whereas effects of morphological and semantic processing will emerge later in development. In contrast, some theoretical accounts might argue that even novice readers will be sensitive to morphological overlap (Deacon, Conrad, et al, 2008;Treiman & Bourassa, 2000;Treiman & Cassar, 1996).…”
