Categorical perception of speech stimuli in children at risk for reading difficulty

Article Abstract:

Children with reading difficulty exhibit consistent deficits in phonemic awareness, or the ability to segment and blend the elements of speech and these deficits likely to play a role in difficulty in acquiring reading skills. Children in the at-risk group as a whole however did exhibit lower phonemic awareness than those in the not-at-risk group, suggesting a relative difficulty in accessing the underlying structure of spoken language.
