Exam 8: Learning to Read and Spell

During which of the following phases does the child read like the adult, and letter patterns that recur across words become familiar so that the child can operate with multi-letter units such as syllables, rimes, and morphemes?

Patients with dyslexia who grow up such that the normal acquisition of reading is impaired have which type of dyslexia?

The idea that different languages make use of different sized preferred reading units is called the:

In which of the following models is there a spelling-to-sound, assembled, or non-lexical route, which can only work for regular words, and a direct, addressed, or lexical route, which will work for all words?

In several experimental studies, using a clue word increased the amount of reading by analogy in all age groups; this suggest that the children´s reading strategies are:

What type of phonics instruction involves teaching reading out loud and blending constituent sounds, and emphasizes that children be taught letters and letter sounds before anything else?

Studies have shown that discovering letters that correspond systematically to sounds is the key to learning to read. This is known as the:

Knowledge about our language processes of which we are aware, that we can report, and of which we can make deliberate use, is called:

The age at which children start to learn to read seems to be relatively unimportant; indeed, there are no serious or permanent side-effects even when it is delayed until age:

A method of combining the results of two or more experiments is called:

Who argued that young children read words by analogy, before they are able to use phonological recoding?

Phonological awareness tasks have been applied systematically to all levels of the syllable, from small units known as ______________, through intermediate-size units known as_____________, to large units called _____________.

Which type of modeling has shown that two distinct types of damage can lead to a continuum of impairment between developmental surface and phonological dyslexia extremes?

During which stage of reading might the word "yellow" be remembered because it "has two tall bits together in the middle"?

What type of dyslexia involves damage to reading systems that were known to be functionally normal before brain trauma?

During which of the following phases are complete connections made between letters and sounds, and children can read words they have never seen before?

In an experiment by Bradley and Bryant a group of children, who were previously shown to be poor at a rhyme judgment task, were given individual weekly training for 2 years on categorizing words by the similarity of their sounds. After 4 years:

Speakers of Chinese use a writing system where there is no correspondence between written symbols and individual sounds; their writing system is said to be:

"Trevor" (age 6) spelled "eat" as "et," with two letters because it only has two sounds. This is an example of:

The underlying ability to determine that two words have a sound in common is called:
