How English is Read: Grapheme-Phoneme Regularity and Orthographic Structure in Word Recognition

Abstract

examined the complex and devious ways that English spelling relates to punctuation / a series of studies attempted to determine which of these relations are exploited in word recognition, especially if word recognition relies on phoneme recognition / concludes that the regularity of the relations between sound and letter has no effect on word recognition: readers do not recognize words by generating their phonological form on the basis of their spelling / phonological recycling occurs when the form has to be held in memory while other aspects of processing occur (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved)
