The primary goal of this study was to examine the word identification domain of the Simple View of Reading in participants with Down syndrome (DS) by comparing them to participants with typical development (TD) matched on word identification ability. Two subskills, phonological recoding and orthographic knowledge, were measured. Results revealed that individuals with DS performed similarly to controls on 2 measures of orthographic knowledge, but more poorly on phonological recoding and a third measure of orthographic knowledge. The first two orthographic tasks included real words as stimuli; the third task used letter patterns, not real words. These results suggest that individuals with DS may have a relative strength in word-specific orthographic knowledge but not in general orthographic knowledge.
本研究的主要目标是,通过将唐氏综合征(DS)患者与在单词识别能力上相匹配的典型发育(TD)参与者进行比较,来检验DS患者在阅读简易观中的单词识别领域。对两项子技能进行了测量,即语音编码和正字法知识。结果显示,DS患者在两项正字法知识测量中的表现与对照组相似,但在语音编码和第三项正字法知识测量中的表现更差。前两项正字法任务使用真实单词作为刺激;第三项任务使用字母模式,而非真实单词。这些结果表明,DS患者可能在特定单词的正字法知识方面具有相对优势,但在一般正字法知识方面则不然。
