Neural and Behavioral Foundations of Emerging Literacy ...

Abstract: Learning to read transforms the mind and brain as children learn to recognize language in its printed form. This dissertation asks, how does spoken language processing support reading development? This inquiry is centered around theoretical frameworks that suggest that skilled reading depends on closely connected representations of sound, print, and meaning. In three separate studies, I explore the neurocognitive basis of reading development and its relation to spoken language processing, with a particular focus on children’s sensitivity to units of meaning in language. First, I examine the interrelation between spoken and written word processing in the brain of 133 5–6-year-old kindergarteners, 68 of whom participated in functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI). This first study reveals that children’s emerging neural architecture for a shared print-speech network is best explained by their spoken language proficiency, and that the extent of this shared network in kindergarten predicts reading skill one ...
