Introduction to the Varieties of Orthographic Knowledge II: Relationships to Phonology, Reading, and Writing

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Neuropsychology and Cognition ((NPCO,volume 11))

Abstract

One of the reasons for the lack of consensus on how to measure orthographic processing is that orthographic processing involves multiple kinds of orthographic knowledge and different investigators are focusing on different kinds of orthographic knowledge (see Introduction to Volume I). Table 1 from that introduction is reproduced on page 2 to provide a conceptual framework for discussing the kind(s) of orthographic knowledge considered by the author(s) of each of the chapters in Volume II.
