Relationship between Rapid Automatized Naming and Kana Reading Tasks in Preschool Children.

The Role of Eye Movements in the Relationship between Rapid Automatized Naming and Reading Ability

The Rapid Automatized Naming test (RAN) has been shown to be a strong predictor of reading ability (Bowers and Wolf, 1993), however, the nature of this relationship remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether the visual scanning and sequential components of the continuous RAN format are similar to those same visual scanning processes required in reading, and whether these...

An experimental comparison between rival theories of rapid automatized naming performance and its relationship to reading.

Two studies investigated the degree to which the relationship between rapid automatized naming (RAN) performance and reading development is driven by shared phonological processes. Study 1 assessed RAN, phonological awareness, and reading performance in 1010 7- to 10-year-olds. Results showed that RAN deficits occurred in the absence of phonological awareness deficits. These were accompanied by...

Rapid Automatized Naming and Reading Performance: A Meta-Analysis

Evidence that rapid naming skill is associated with reading ability has become increasingly prevalent in recent years. However, there is considerable variation in the literature concerning the magnitude of this relationship. The objective of the present study was to provide a comprehensive analysis of the evidence on the relationship between rapid automatized naming (RAN) and reading performanc...

Relationship between rapid naming, phonological awareness and spelling in Farsi normally developing children

Introduction: The aim of the present study was to investigate relationship among phonological awareness, rapid naming and spelling in normally developing Farsi speaking children. Materials and Methods: In this description- analytical cross sectional study 30 normally developing students randomly selected from Tehran (Iran).
