The implications of these results on aphasia tests could be significant and pose questions on the adequacy of such tools for testing non-literate individuals. Aiming at examining the impact of literacy on oral language processing and its implication on aphasia tests, this study tested 12 non-literate and 12 literate individuals with a modified Amharic version of the Bilingual Aphasia Test (Paradis and Amberber, 1991, Bilingual Aphasia Test. Amharic version. Hillsdale, NJ: Lawrence Erlbaum.). The problems of phonological awareness skills in oral language processing in non-literates are substantiated. In addition, compared with literate participants, non-literate individuals demonstrated difficulties in the word/sentence-picture matching tasks. This study has also revealed that the Amharic version of the Bilingual Aphasia Test may be viable for testing Amharic-speaking non-literate individuals with aphasia when modifications are incorporated.

Hierbei bilden Fähigkeiten zur phonologischen Bewusstheit (PhB) den Schwerpunkt. Der erfolgreiche Schriftspracherwerb ist nicht nur für den Bildungserfolg mit den damit verbundenen beruflichen und sozio‑ökonomischen Perspektiven wichtig, sondern auch für die aktive Teilhabe am sozialen und kulturellen Leben in unserer Gesellschaft. Die Bestandteile dieser publikationsbasierten Dissertation sind eine Monographie (Schnitzler, 2008), ein Beitrag in einem Sammelwerk (Schnitzler, 2013) sowie zwei Zeitschriftenartikel (Schnitzler, 2014, 2015). Die ersten beiden Publikationen beschäftigen sich mit der Entwicklung der PhB sowie Zusammenhängen zwischen PhB und Schriftsprachfertigkeiten. Die beiden Zeitschriftenartikel beschäftigen sich mit dem LRS‑Risiko deutschsprachiger Kinder, die im Vorschulalter aufgrund phonologischer Aussprachestörungen (PhAS) logopädisch behandelt werden. Hierzu wurden in Schnitzler (2015) die Ergebnisse einer selbst durchgeführten Studie dargestellt. In dieser Studie wurden mögliche Einflüsse zusätzlicher nicht‑phonologischer Symptome und der Art der phonologischen Aussprachestörung kontrolliert. Die Ergebnisse weisen darauf hin, dass zum Schulbeginn und während der Schuleingangsphase genau beobachtet werden sollte, ob Kinder über altersentsprechende Fähigkeiten zur PhB verfügen und ob sie diese segmental‑phonologischen Wissensbestände bewusst aktivieren und beim Lesen und Schreiben effizient nutzen. Dies gilt insbesondere für Kinder, für die ein erhöhtes LRS‑Risiko besteht. Verfügen Kinder zu dieser Zeit über unzureichend spezifizierte phonologische Repräsentationen, ist eine frühzeitige Intervention im Sinne einer Prävention von LRS angezeigt. 2015 IV, 52 urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-92370 Department Erziehungswissenschaft OPUS4-44471 Wissenschaftlicher Artikel Noiray, Aude; Popescu, Anisia; Killmer, Helene; Rubertus, Elina; Krüger, Stella; Hintermeier, Lisa Spoken Language Development and the Challenge of Skill Integration The development of phonological awareness, the knowledge of the structural combinatoriality of a language, has been widely investigated in relation to reading (dis)ability across languages. However, the extent to which knowledge of phonemic units may interact with spoken language organization in (transparent) alphabetical languages has hardly been investigated. The present study examined whether phonemic awareness correlates with coarticulation degree, commonly used as a metric for estimating the size of children's production units. A speech production task was designed to test for developmental differences in intra-syllabic coarticulation degree in 41 German children from 4 to 7 years of age. The technique of ultrasound imaging allowed for comparing the articulatory foundations of children's coarticulatory patterns. Four behavioral tasks assessing various levels of phonological awareness from large to small units and expressive vocabulary were also administered. Generalized additive modeling revealed strong interactions between children's vocabulary and phonological awareness with coarticulatory patterns. Greater knowledge of sub-lexical units was associated with lower intra-syllabic coarticulation degree and greater differentiation of articulatory gestures for individual segments. This interaction was mostly nonlinear: an increase in children's phonological proficiency was not systematically associated with an equivalent change in coarticulation degree. Similar findings were drawn between vocabulary and coarticulatory patterns. Overall, results suggest that the process of developing spoken language fluency involves dynamical interactions between cognitive and speech motor domains. Arguments for an integrated-interactive approach to skill development are discussed.

Methodik: Die Risikokinder der Trainingsgruppe (n = 20) wurden über 11 Wochen mit den Programmen Hören, Lauschen, Lernen 1 und 2 (Küspert & Schneider, 2008; Plume & Schneider, 2004) von Erzieherinnen gefördert. Sie wurden einer nicht-geförderten Risiko-Kontrollgruppe (n = 43) hinsichtlich ihrer Lese- und Rechtschreibleistungen sowie der Häufigkeit von LRS von der 1. bis zur 3. Klasse gegenübergestellt. Dabei wurden neben den Daten regulär eingeschulter Kinder auch jene in die Analyse inkludiert, die vom Schulbesuch zurückgestellt wurden. Ergebnisse: Im 1. und 2. Grundschuljahr zeigten die trainierten Risikokinder im Lesen und Rechtschreiben einen mindestens tendenziellen Leistungsvorsprung gegenüber nicht-geförderten Risikokindern. Trainingseffekte zeigten sich ebenfalls in einer Reduktion der Anzahl von Kindern mit LRS bis Klasse 2, tendenziell auch in Klasse 3. Schlussfolgerung: Insgesamt sprechen die Befunde für die Wirksamkeit des Trainings in der primären Prävention von Lese-Rechtschreibschwierigkeiten bei Risikokindern unter alltagsnahen Bedingungen. 2018 15 Postprints der Universität Potsdam : Humanwissenschaftliche Reihe 672 171 183 urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-441426 10.25932/publishup-44142 Department Psychologie OPUS4-10194 misc Kempert, Sebastian Benjamin; Götz, Regina; Blatter, Kristine; Tibken, Catharina; Artelt, Cordula; Schneider, Wolfgang; Stanat, Petra Training Early Literacy Related Skills Well-developed phonological awareness skills are a core prerequisite for early literacy development. Although effective phonological awareness training programs exist, children at risk often do not reach similar levels of phonological awareness after the intervention as children with normally developed skills. Based on theoretical considerations and first promising results the present study explores effects of an early musical training in combination with a conventional phonological training in children with weak phonological awareness skills. Using a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest control group design and measurements across a period of 2 years, we tested the effects of two interventions: a consecutive combination of a musical and a phonological training and a phonological training alone. The design made it possible to disentangle effects of the musical training alone as well the effects of its combination with the phonological training. The outcome measures of these groups were compared with the control group with multivariate analyses, controlling for a number of background variables. The sample included N = 424 German-speaking children aged 4-5 years at the beginning of the study. We found a positive relationship between musical abilities and phonological awareness. Yet, whereas the well-established phonological training produced the expected effects, adding a musical training did not contribute significantly to phonological awareness development. Training effects were partly dependent on the initial level of phonological awareness. Possible reasons for the lack of training effects in the musical part of the combination condition as well as practical implications for early literacy education are discussed. 2016 16 urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-101943 Strukturbereich Bildungswissenschaften OPUS4-45004 Wissenschaftlicher Artikel Höse, Anna; Wyschkon, Anne; Moraske, Svenja; Eggeling, Marie; Quandte, Sabine; Kohn, Juliane; Poltz, Nadine; von Aster, Michael G.; Esser, Günter Prevention of dyslexia short-term and intermediate effects of promoting phonological awareness and letter-sound correspondence with at-risk preschool children Objective: This study assesses the short-term and intermediate effects of preschool training stimulating phonological awareness and letter-sound correspondence for children at risk of developing dyslexia. Moreover, we examined whether training reduced the frequency of subsequent dyslexic problems. Method: 25 children at risk of developing dyslexia were trained with Horen, Lauschen, Lernen 1 und 2 (Kuspert & Schneider, 2008; Plume & Schneider, 2004) by their kindergarten teachers and were compared with 60 untrained at-risk children. Results:The training revealed a significant short-term effect: The phonological awareness of trained at-risk children increased significantly over that of untrained at-risk children. However, there were no differences in phonological awareness, spelling, and reading ability between the first-graders in the training and control group. Furthermore, reading problems were reduced in the training group. Conclusions: In the future, phonological awareness as well as additional predictors should be included when identifying children vulnerable to developing dyslexia. Moreover, in order to prevent dyslexia, additional prerequisite deficits need to be identified, alleviated, and their effects evaluated.
