Patterns of reading and spelling in 10-year-old children related to prereading phonological abilities
Article Abstract:
Ten-year-old children previously assessed on their reading and spelling abilities when they were four years old, are studied on their progress six years later. Findings showed that children with good early phonological awareness possessed well-developed lexical and sublexical reading and spelling procedures while children with poor early phonological awareness possessed a more developed lexical processing system than those who had a good early phonological background.

Inferring sublexical correspondence from sight vocabulary: evidence from 6- and 7-year-olds
Article Abstract:
This article describes an experiment designed to discover if children, ages six and seven, are able to acquire from reading an ability to pronounce and recognize new words. Research shows that a child's initial understanding of the speech sounds represented by alphabets develops into coding procedures for the phonological interpretation of printed words, and eventually, the storing of mental representations of printed words.

Sublexical inferences in beginning reading: medial vowel digraphs as functional units of transfer
Article Abstract:
Research studies were conducted to examine the use of lexical inference among young children. One study focused on transfer from shared rimes or heads and the other study dealt with the transfer from three pretaught clue words sharing rimes or vowel digraphs. Results show that reading improvements among the subjects are equal for both vowel and rime analogous words. Lexical transfer was observed under various conditions.
