Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q3 i? The effect was affected neither by target reading accuracy nor by target reading speed during the learning phase. → Marie-Line Bosse 2015

q3 · i? · causal · r?
The pseudoword learning study reports the whole-word presentation effect "was affected neither by target reading accuracy nor by target reading speed", indicating the benefit does not reduce to decoding performance. No effect size is printed.
"This effect was affected neither by target reading accuracy nor by target reading speed during the learning phase."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Children recognise the orthographic form of a pseudoword more often when its entire letter string was available at once during reading.
- The whole-word presentation effect on orthographic learning is significant and stable from third to fifth grade. — related
