Nonword repetition and reading in deaf children with cochlear implants [PDF]

International Congress Series, 2004
In this study, we report analyses of nonword repetition responses from 76 experienced pediatric cochlear implants users. Nonword repetition performance reflects the participants' reliance on their phonological system, which has been found to be related to phonological awareness skills and reading in normal-hearing children.

Shared genetics between ADHD and reading/language abilities: Genome‐wide correlations, stratified enrichment, cross‐trait association, and mendelian randomization

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and language/reading difficulties frequently co‐occur. The extent of shared genetic architecture remains incompletely defined. We investigated genome‐wide overlap between ADHD and four core skills: word reading, nonword reading, spelling, and phoneme awareness.

Diving Into High‐Variability Phonetic Training: Stimuli Type and Learners’ Auditory Selective Attention in Second Language Vowel Training

Language Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated the phonetic training performance of 80 first language (L1) Catalan/Spanish advanced second language (L2) English learners in a four‐session high‐variability phonetic training (HVPT) program and how their training progress interacted with stimuli type (nonwords vs. words) and individual differences in auditory selective

What predicts nonword repetition performance?

Child Neuropsychology, 2019
Despite the widespread use of nonword repetition in child neuropsychological research and clinical practice, the specific cognitive, linguistic and motor processes that contribute to variability in performance are unclear. The aim of this work was to determine the role of phonological memory, word reading, oromotor sequencing, and oromotor control on ...

Dimensions of Lexical Mastery and Their Relationships with Listening and Reading Proficiency Among Beginner‐to‐Low‐Intermediate Learners of French

Language Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract The extent to which lexical mastery consists of interrelated types of lexical knowledge has been widely discussed. Yet, few studies have explored whether the lexical dimensions of knowledge and processing are relatively independent or investigated how these two dimensions contribute to listening and reading among beginner‐to‐low‐intermediate ...

A Nonword Repetition Task for Speakers With Misarticulations: The Syllable Repetition Task (SRT)

Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2009
Purpose Conceptual and methodological confounds occur when non(sense) word repetition tasks are administered to speakers who do not have the target speech sounds in their phonetic inventories or who habitually misarticulate targeted speech sounds.
