经验不足的高级读者中的跨模态语义上下文效果

Purpose Children develop lexical orthographic expertise to recognize written words, a process involving complex visual analysis which may be vulnerable to crowding effects that impair letter identification. As oral language develops before reading, oral language comprehension may compensate for immature orthographic processing during reading development.Methods This study investigated whether oral language comprehension skills cross-modally supports visual word recognition at different stages of reading development. We examined whether congruent auditory sentences mitigated visual crowding, ma
