Meulen, B. F. van der (2015). Phonological processing and word
reading in typically developing and learning disabled children:
seriousness is important.
The article examines the link between phonological processing and word reading in children with and
without reading difficulties and examines whether the severity of the reading problems affects the
nature of this relationship. A total of 85 Dutch children participated in the study, of whom 50 were
typically developing children and 35 children with reading difficulties.
The study used several language tests to measure phonological processing and word reading.
Phonological processing was measured using the Phonological Awareness Test (FBT) and the
Nonword Repetition Test (NRT), while word reading was measured using the Word Reading Test
(WLT). The researchers also used a questionnaire to determine the severity of the reading difficulties.
The results of the study show that there is a significant correlation between phonological processing
and word reading in both typically developing children and children with reading difficulties. This
means that children who score better on phonological processing tasks also perform better on word
reading tasks.
Furthermore, the results show that the relationship between phonological processing and word
reading is stronger in children with more severe reading problems than in children with milder
reading difficulties. This suggests that phonological processing and word reading are important
factors in understanding reading difficulties and that the severity of the reading problems may affect
the nature of this relationship.
The researchers suggest that their findings have important implications for identifying and treating
children with reading difficulties. The research confirms the importance of phonological processing in
word reading, implying that training phonological processing can help improve reading skills in
children with reading difficulties. Also, the importance of the severity of reading difficulties in the
relationship between phonological processing and word reading can help in understanding individual
differences in the reading process.
In short, the article emphasizes the importance of investigating the relationship between
phonological processing and word reading in children with and without reading difficulties and the
importance of understanding the severity of reading problems in treating reading problems.
