SPCH3106 Lecture Notes - Lecture 6: Grapheme, Phonological Awareness, Deep Dyslexia
Document Summary
3 routes for reading: lexical semantic reading for comprehension; all words, regular & irregular, lexical non-semantic - bypasses ss; all words , regular & irregular, non-lexical letter/ sound conversion; regular words. Management: assessment, effects, palpa subtests, treatment, tasks, efficacy, generalisation. Assessment: effects: visual orthographic analysis length, orthographic input lexicon- frequency, semantic system class; imageability ; morphology, phonological output lexicon frequency, phonological assembly buffer syllable length, orthographic to phonological conversion regularity; lexicality; letter length. Access to ss : subtest 38 homophone define-then-read. 29: letter length reading (to see whether letter length has an impact on success or not?) 20% errors: minimal cueing, correction via judgement strategies, upgrade at 90% correct + no delay, measure effects of treatment. 72 years old with profound alexia, unable to read aloud or use letter by letter reading. Focuses of therapy voa via letter by letter reading.
