The phonological awareness abilities of children with cerebral palsy who do not speak

To investigate the importance of the connection between being able to speak and the emergence of phonological awareness abilities, the performance of children with cerebral palsy (five speakers and six non-speakers) was assessed at syllable, onset-rime, and phoneme levels. The children were matched with control groups of children for non-verbal intelligence. No group differences were found for the identification of syllables, reading non-words, or judging spoken rhyme. The children with cerebral palsy who could speak, however, performed better than the children with cerebral palsy who could not speak and the control group of children without disabilities, judging written words for rhyme. The children with cerebral palsy who could not speak performed poorly in comparison to those who could speak ( but not the control group of children) when segmenting syllables and on the phoneme manipulation task. The findings suggest that non-speaking children with cerebral palsy have phonological awareness performance that varies according to the mental processing demands of the task. The ability to speak facilitates performance when phonological awareness tasks ( written rhyme judgment, syllable segmentation, and phoneme manipulation) require the use of an articulatory loop.

The role of analogy in spelling in English primary school children - a partial intervention study

The English writing system is notoriously irregular in its orthography at the phonemic level. It was therefore proposed that focusing beginner-spellers’ attention on sound-letter relations at the sub-syllabic level might improve spelling performance. This hypothesis was tested in Experiments 1 and 2 using a ‘clue word’ paradigm to investigate the effect of analogy teaching intervention / non-intervention on the spelling performance of an experimental group and controls. The results overall showed the intervention to be effective in improving spelling, and this effect to be enduring. Experiment 3 demonstrated a greater application of analogy in spelling, when clue words, which participants used in analogy to spell test words, remained in view during testing. A series of regression analyses, with spelling entered as the criterion variable and age, analogy and phonological plausibility (PP) as predictors, showed both analogy and PP to be highly predictive of spelling. Experiment 4 showed that children could use analogy to improve their spelling, even without intervention, by comparing their performance in spelling words presented in analogous categories or in random lists. Consideration of children’s patterns of analogy use at different points of development showed three age groups to use similar patterns of analogy, but contrasting analogy patterns for spelling different words. This challenges stage theories of analogy use in literacy. Overall the most salient units used in analogy were the rime and, to a slightly lesser degree, the onset-vowel and vowel. Finally, Experiment 5 showed analogy and phonology to be fairly equally influential in spelling, but analogy to be more influential than phonology in reading. Five separate experiments therefore found analogy to be highly influential in spelling. Experiment 5 also considered the role of memory and attention in literacy attainment. The important implications of this research are that analogy, rather than purely phonics-based strategy, is instrumental in correct spelling in English.

Ó Sheán Clárach Mac Domhnaill go dtí Nioclás Tóibín: traidisiún na hamhránaíochta ins na Déise

Féachann an tráchtas seo le solas a chaitheamh ar an amhránaíocht mar a chleachtaítí agus mar a chleactaítear fós i gcontae Phort Láirge í. Ardaítear ann ceisteanna a bhaineann le seachadadh agus le sealbhú na n-amhrán I measc an phobail i gceantar na nDéise sa tréimhse c.1750-1960, ó aimsir Sheáin Chláraigh go dtí an ré sin ina raibh Nioclás Tóibín, ‘rí-amhránaí Éireann’, ar bhuaic a réime. Cuirtear spéis anseo i bhfás agus i dteacht chun cinn an Rómánsachais agus (a leathchúpla) an náisiúnachais ar Mhór-roinn na hEorpa in earr an 18ú haois agus amach san 19ú haois; ar thionchar na ngluaiseachtaí sin i bhfad ó bhaile ar Éirinn i gcoitinne san aimsir úd; orthu sin a raibh díolamaí amhrán á gcur in eagar acu in Éirinn san 19ú agus amach san 20ú haois; agus, ar deireadh, ar an stór amhrán mar atá le clos inniu I measc na ndaoine i nGaeltacht na Déise.

De l'amour et de l'audace - Imaginaire générique et pratique du roman chez trois écrivaines des années 1930 au Québec

Cette thèse propose de voir comment les romancières des années 1930 poursuivent un mouvement collectif d’accès à la vie littéraire amorcé depuis la fin du XIXe siècle, tout en ouvrant le chemin à de nombreuses voies inexplorées dans la littérature canadienne-française. Dans la foulée de la démarche sociopoétique proposée par Alain Viala, elle emprunte aux travaux en sociocritique des textes, en histoire littéraire et culturelle et aux études sur le genre afin de retracer la trajectoire des écrivaines et d’examiner, à travers les romans et les textes intimes (lettres, journaux intimes), les modulations d’un ensemble de discours, tant publics que privés, tenus par les femmes qui font le choix d’une carrière littéraire. Après avoir présenté l’ensemble des dynamiques ainsi que l’imaginaire générique qui structurent et encadrent la production littéraire féminine durant l’entre-deux-guerres, l’analyse est resserrée autour de trois auteures : Jovette-Alice Bernier, Éva Senécal et Michelle Le Normand. L’étude des archives révèle comment les discours épistolaires et diaristiques figurent des laboratoires du texte en gestation, tout comme ils dynamisent l’infusion de plusieurs postures tendant à négocier et à légitimer l’action et le discours des écrivaines ; postures qui trouveront leur prolongement dans les fictions. Puis, l’analyse des formes narratives, des motifs et des figures à l’œuvre dans les romans publiés en volumes esquisse les contours d’un imaginaire qui problématise la place du féminin dans la société canadienne-française. Enfin, l’analyse de la réception des romans entend démontrer comment le discours critique se borne à déconsidérer la production des femmes et invite ces dernières à interrompre leur carrière ou à bifurquer vers d’autres pratiques discursives. Dans un contexte où « modernité culturelle » rime autant avec « révolution » qu’avec « crise », et où les conditions politiques, socioéconomiques et culturelles transforment l’action, la place et la parole des femmes dans l’espace social, cette étude entend ainsi montrer comment les écrivaines et leurs textes participent d’un renouvellement des pratiques d’écriture, tout en étant les témoins, les critiques et les acteurs privilégiés des tensions et des contradictions qui agitent le Québec des années 1930.
