Abstract
Individual differences in visual and linguistic skills at the end of kindergarten (26 girls, 22 boys) were correlated with achievement in word decoding/encoding prior to formal reading instruction. The best combination of predictor variables for naming printed words was phonemic analysis + selective attention to letter information (RT) + memory for whole words (accuracy).This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
