q3 i? Performance differences based on transcription complexity provided insights into the extent to which children internalized lexical representations. → Cerni 2025

Evidence¶

Cerni 2025¶

Cerni, Tania; Lonciari, Isabella; Job, Remo. (2025). Learning by writing: The influence of handwriting and typing on novel word learning in typically developing readers and readers with dyslexia. LEARNING AND INSTRUCTION. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.learninstruc.2025.102119

q3 · i? · causal · r?

The article reports that performance varied with transcription regularity of the learned nonwords, which the authors interpret as indexing lexical internalization; the available text prints no effect size for this pattern.

"Performance differences based on transcription complexity provided insights into the extent to which children internalized lexical representations."

• All narrative microstructure measures increase with age group, but only lexical diversity (NDW) differs between Japanese–English bilingual and English monolingual children — related
• No macrostructure measure differs significantly between bilingual and monolingual children, while age improves story structure, internal state terms, comprehension, and aggregate scores but not structural complexity — related
