As the first title in the new series, "New Directions in
Communication Disorders Research: Integrative Approaches," this
volume discusses a unique phenomenon in cognitive
science--single-word reading--which is an essential element in
successful reading competence. Single-word reading is an
interdisciplinary area of research that incorporates phonological,
orthographic, graphemic, and semantic information in the
representations suitable for the task demands of reading. Editors
Elena L. Grigorenko and Adam J. Naples have organized a collection
of essays written by an outstanding group of scholars in order to
systematically sample research on this important topic, as well as
to describe the research within different experimental paradigms.
"Single-Word Reading "provides an introduction to unfamiliar areas
of research, and is an inspiration for future study. The
introductory chapter sets up a contextual stage for connections
between spoken and written word processing, the stage-based nature
of their development, and the role of education. Succeeding
chapters address visual word processing; the role of morphology in
word recognition; the role of lexical representation; the
biological bases of single-word reading and related processes; and
more.
Reading researchers will take interest in this substantial book, as
will professionals and practitioners linked to the teaching of
reading in the departments of school psychology, special education,
communication disorders, neuroscience, cognitive science,
linguistics, and reading.
