MODELS OF THE READING PROCESS Word Identification
BOTTOM UP MODELSIMPLE VIEW OF READINGGOUGH • Cognitive processing of information proceeds from lower order to higher order stages • Reading comprehension is a result of two processes: decoding and language comprehension • Catts and Kamhi
AUTOMATIC PROCESSING MODEL: LABERGE AND SAMUELS • Model components • Visual memory • Phonological memory • Episodic memory • Semantic memory • Attention
ROLE OF ATTENTION: LABERGE AND SAMUELS • Individuals have a limited amount of attention available • Automaticity in some components frees attention • Is basis for attention to fluency • Fluency is a “proxy” for automatic decoding
INTERACTIVE MODEL: RUMELHART • A non-linear model • Simultaneous convergence of different processors • Orthographic: letter/sound recognition • Lexical: vocabulary • Syntactic: grammar • Semantic: meaning and context
INTERACTIVE-COMPENSATORY MODEL: STANOVICH • Based on Rumelhart’s nonlinear interactive model • Text processors are compensatory; if one processor has insufficient data, the others compensate
PHONOLOGICAL-CORE MODEL: STANOVICH • Primary issue is a phonological processing deficit (awareness of and ability to hear and manipulate sounds within words) • “The Matthew Effect”
LIBERMAN AND LIBERMAN Mastery of speech does not make a child aware of the alphabetic structure of words There is little connection between the component sounds of a word and the meaning of the word Reading a word and knowing its meaning are separate matters The route to the lexicon is always phonological not visual
SOUND PROCESSING PERSPECTIVE: EHRI • Words are not captured in memory as a geometric figure or by rote memorization • Words are captured as a sequence of letters and letter-sound connections • In subsequent encounters, words are retrieved through letter sound connections
JUST AND CARPENTER • Model based upon eye movement studies • Readers fixate on and process every content word: they encode, choose meaning, and determine status in sentence and discourse. • Readers cannot determine the meaning of words in their peripheral vision. • Fixation length reflects time to determine meaning.
Adams Skilled readers are indifferent to word shape Skilled readers process every letter and/or syllable; they do not predict from context Skilled readers translate letters to sounds; they do not read words as visual wholes “Dyslexic” readers do not see backwards
Adams Use of context aids word recognition; it does not replace use of letter and sounds Young readers and poor readers are especially sensitive to context. Context is not helpful in unfamiliar text
