Reading A Year Later

چکیده
Two sets of measurements evaluated performance on typographically inverted text that students had learned to read 13 to IS months earlier. In one set, speed of reading was compared for pages read for the first and second times. Reread pages were read more quickly, thereby revealing an exceptional degree of memory at the pattern-analyzing level. In the second set of measurements, the readers classified the pages as to occasion of reading. Comparing the two sets of measurements showed that different aspects of memory were measured by the different tests, and they were not well correlated. Performance is accounted for in terms of encoding operations directed at the linguistic patterns, in contrast to the more familiar notion of manipulating semantic representations.

متن کاملMonitoring early first-grade reading progress: a comparison of two measures.
This study compared the validity of progress monitoring slope of nonsense word fluency (NWF) and word identification fluency (WIF) with early first-grade readers. Students (N = 80) considered to be at risk for reading difficulty were monitored with NWF and WIF on a 1-2 week basis across 11 weeks. Reading skills at the end of first grade were assessed using measures of passage reading fluency, r...
