PHONOLOGICAL PROCESSING ABILITIES AND READING C...

Phonological processing abilities specifically include three distinct but related components:
phonological awareness  phonological memory  and rapid naming. The knowledge of
interrelationships between phonological processing abilities and reading development has led to
an improved understanding of the nature of the reading process. However  numerous studies have
produced inconsistent results regarding the independence of rapid naming in predicting L1 and
L2 word reading. There is also controversy over the conceptualization of rapid naming. This
book aims to rethink theoretically the nature of phonological processing abilities and their
link to reading and examine empirically the relationship of phonological processing abilities
to component skills of reading competence  with a focus on the relation of rapid naming and
reading skills. The Lexical Quality Hypothesis and Model of Information Processing are
introduced as the theoretical frameworks for analysis first  and then both the cross-sectional
approach and the quasi-experimental approach are adopted to address the key research questions.
The book concludes by discussing theoretical implications of the findings  contributions and
limitations of the study  and suggestions for further research.
