    Young readers utilize sentence structure for decoding, with more skilled children showing longer eye-voice spans. Linguistically constrained texts benefit better readers and adults, supporting a continuous model of reading development.

    Area of Science:

    • Cognitive Psychology
    • Developmental Psychology
    • Educational Psychology

    Background:

    • Early reading development involves complex cognitive processes.
    • Understanding how children utilize linguistic cues during reading is crucial.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate if children use sentence structure to aid reading decoding.
    • To examine the relationship between reading competence and eye-voice span.

    Main Methods:

    • An eye-voice span paradigm was used with 84 Grade 1 and 2 children and 15 adults.
    • Participants read texts with varying semantic and syntactic constraints.

    Main Results:

    • More advanced young readers exhibited longer eye-voice spans.

  • Skilled readers and adults showed a greater advantage with linguistically constrained texts.

    • Conclusions:

    • Reading development is a continuous process.
    • Early reading behavior is best defined interactively, integrating linguistic information.
