Decoding and vocabulary improvements mediate sustained gains in reading comprehension: Evidence from a randomised controlled trial of a multicomponent reading intervention

open access: yesJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, Volume 67, Issue 9, Page 1562-1575, September 2026.
Background Reading comprehension is critical for academic success, yet many children with persistent decoding difficulties struggle to achieve it. This study examined whether a multicomponent literacy intervention is effective in improving reading comprehension and whether any gains in comprehension are mediated by improvements in word reading and ...

Modeling Item Responses to Understand Change over Time and Diagnostic Needs in Tandem

open access: yesJournal of Educational Measurement, Volume 63, Issue 3, Fall 2026.
Abstract Achievement tests are often designed to measure student growth over time using vertical scales while also providing diagnostic information on mastery of specific skill areas. However, traditional assessments rarely integrate psychometric models appropriate for both purposes.

Preservation of positive emotion recognition in patients with multiple sclerosis: Artefact related to methodological issues or real feature of the disorder?

open access: yesJournal of Neuropsychology, Volume 20, Issue 3, Page 579-595, September 2026.
Abstract Prior studies in multiple sclerosis (MS) suggest preserved recognition of positive emotions despite deficits for negative ones, but this dissociation may reflect methodological limitations (valence‐asymmetry: positive‐valence being limited to happiness/joy in basic‐emotion sets). This study tested whether emotion–recognition deficits in MS are

Gender‐Specific Phonetic Variability in Sanzhi Dargwa

open access: yesJournal of Sociolinguistics, Volume 30, Issue 4, Page 466-481, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Western sociophonetic research often overlooks minority languages. Our study targets this gap with a sociophonetic study of Sanzhi Dargwa, an endangered East Caucasian language spoken in Dagestan (Russian Federation) by a small community with clearly defined binary gender roles.

Effective When Distinctive: The Role of Phonetic Similarity in Nested Dependency Learning Across Preschool Years

open access: yesLanguage Learning, Volume 76, Issue 3, Page 1027-1061, September 2026.
Abstract Parallel tracking of distant relations between speech elements, so‐called nonadjacent dependencies (NADs), is crucial in language development but computationally demanding and acquired only in late preschool years. As processing of single NADs is facilitated when dependent elements are perceptually similar, we investigated how phonetic ...
