Does the visual attention span play a role in the morphological processing of orthographic stimuli?
(Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 2019)
We investigated whether the link between visual attention (VA) span and reading is modulated by the presence of
morphemes. Second and fourth grade children, with Basque as their first language, named morphologically complex ...
The Deployment of Young Readers´ Visual Attention across Orthographic Strings: The Influence of Stems and Suffixes
(Scientific Studies of Reading, 2021)
The goal of the paper was to investigate whether morphological units –
stems and suffixes – influence orthographic processing by modulating
visual attention demands to the task. Orthographic processing was measured
with ...
Enhancing reading performance through action video games: the role of visual attention span
(Scientific Reports, 2017)
Recent studies reported that Action Video Game-AVG training improves not only certain attentional components, but also reading fluency in children with dyslexia. We aimed to investigate the shared attentional components ...
Cross-Language Modulation of Visual Attention Span: An Arabic-French-Spanish Comparison in Skilled Adult Readers
(Frontiers in Psychology, 2016)
In delineating the amount of orthographic information that can be processed in parallel during a single fixation, the visual attention (VA) span acts as a key component of the reading system. Previous studies focused on ...
The effect of orthographic depth on letter string processing: the case of visual attention span and rapid automatized naming
(Reading and Writing, 2018)
The present study investigated whether orthographic depth can increase the bias towards multi-letter processing in two reading-related skills: visual attention span (VAS) and rapid automatized naming (RAN). VAS (i.e., the ...
Déjà-lu: When Orthographic Representations are Generated in the Absence of Orthography
(UBIQUITY PRESS, 2023)
When acquiring novel spoken words, English-speaking children generate preliminary orthographic representations even before seeing the words’ spellings (Wegener et al., 2018). Interestingly, these orthographic skeletons are ...
Gepo with a G, or Jepo with a J? Skilled Readers Generate Orthographic Expectations for Novel Spoken Words Even When Spelling is Uncertain
(WILEY, 2022)
English-speaking children and adults generate orthographic skeletons (i.e., preliminary orthographic
representations) solely from aural exposure to novel words. The present study examined whether
skilled readers generate ...
One-to-One or One Too Many? Linking Sound-to-Letter Mappings to Speech Sound Perception and Production in Early Readers
(ASHA, 2022)
Purpose: Effects related to literacy acquisition have been observed at different
levels of speech processing. This study investigated the link between orthographic
knowledge and children’s perception and production of ...
