چکیده

THIS STUDY invesrigared the order of acquisition of phonological sensitivity skills among preschool and kinderganen children. Phonological sensitiviiy was examined in terms of four lc:vels of linguistic coniplexit\' (words, syllables, onsets and rimes, phonemes) across four levels of task complexity (blending detection, elision detection, blending, and elision). Participants were 947 twoto five-year-old children from diverse backgrounds. Hierarchical loglinear analyses evidenced a quasi-parallel pattern of development that corresponded to a hierarchical model of word structtire and a working memory model of task complexity. Findings support a developmental conceptualization of phonological sensitivit)'. Findings are discussed in relation to their implications for improving assessment, early literacy instruction, and prevention of reading difficulties. ESTE ESTUDIO investig6 el orden de adquislcion de habilidades de sensibilidad fonologica entre nifios precscolares y de iiivel inicial. La sensibilidad fono!6gica ftie examinada en terminos de cuacro niveles de complejidad lingiifstica (palahras, silabas, ataques y rimas y fonemas) y a rraves de tareas de cuacro niveles de complejidad (deteccion de sintesis, detecci6n de omision, sintesis y omision), Participaron 947 ninos de dos a cinco aiios de diversa procedencia social. Los anilisis jerirquicos lineales evidenciaron itn patron de desarrollo cuasi paralelo correspondiente a un modelo jerirquico de escruciura de la palabra y a un modelo de memoria operativa relacionado con la complejidad de las tareas. l^s resultados apoyan una conceptualizacion evolutiva de la sensibilidad fonol6gica, E.sros se discuien en relaci^n a sus impllcancias para mejorar la cvaluaci6n, la ensenanza de la lectoescritura inicial y ia prevencion de las ditlculcades dc Icctuta.

On Broca, brain, and binding: a new framework.

In speaking and comprehending language, word information is retrieved from memory and combined into larger units (unification). Unification operations take place in parallel at the semantic, syntactic and phonological levels of processing. This article proposes a new framework that connects psycholinguistic models to a neurobiological account of language. According to this proposal the left inf...

Infant speech perception bootstraps word learning.

By their first birthday, infants can understand many spoken words. Research in cognitive development has long focused on the conceptual changes that accompany word learning, but learning new words also entails perceptual sophistication. Several developmental steps are required as infants learn to segment, identify and represent the phonetic forms of spoken words, and map those word forms to dif...

Toward a Language-General Account of Word Production: The Proximate Units Principle.

Theories of language production are monolingual but the world is multilingual. In the domain of word-form encoding, it is clear that languages rely differentially on different phonological units, challenging the generality of the monolingual theories. To address this, we propose the proximate units principle, which holds that the initial selection of sub-lexical phonological units (syllables, m...
