ABSTRACT

Deficits in reading fluency and in spelling can dissociate during development, resulting in groups with reading deficit only (RD), spelling deficit only (SD) and combined reading and spelling deficit (RSD). The current study investigated the one-to-two-year longitudinal stability of these subgroups in 167 German-speaking children. Reading fluency deficits (irrespective of spelling skills) were stable over time, while spelling deficits were stable in the RSD-group but not in the SD-group. Lower stability in the SD-group resulted from the fact that many children improved their spelling skills over time. Improvement in spelling was associated with good performance in phoneme awareness together with intact RAN and decoding skills.

摘要

在发展过程中，阅读流利度和拼写缺陷可能会消失，从而导致只有阅读缺陷（RD），仅拼写缺陷（SD）和阅读与拼写缺陷（RSD）组合的人群。目前的研究调查了这些亚组在167个德语儿童中的一到两年纵向稳定性。随着时间的流逝，阅读流利度缺陷（与拼写技巧无关）稳定，而RSD组中的拼写缺陷则稳定，而SD组中的则没有。SD组的稳定性较低是由于许多孩子随着时间的推移提高了他们的拼写技能。拼写的改善与音素意识的良好表现以及完整的RAN和解码技能有关。
