The role of morphological awareness in explaining reading-writing difficulties /El papel de la conciencia morfológica en la explicación de las dificultades de aprendizaje de la lectoescritura

“…In this sense, in a longitudinal study investigating the effects of morphological awareness on five reading measures, Kirby et al (2012) show that morphological awareness does indeed play an important role in reading and reading comprehension. This idea has also been corroborated in Spanish by Medina-Cárdenas and Rueda (2018).…”

“…It seems clear that more studies are needed in Spanish which would help clarify in an increasingly precise fashion the role played by morphological awareness in learning reading and writing among students with reading-writing learning difficulties. It is possible that some certainties will be revealed, such as the fact that morphological awareness is capable of explaining part of the variance in reading, writing and text comprehension in Spanish-speaking students with typical development (Medina-Cárdenas & Rueda, 2018). Another certainty may be the relationship with the mechanisms that play a role in writing in Spanish, which along with phonological and orthographic mechanisms also include morphology (Alegría & Carrillo, 2014), even though it is a transparent, superficial language.…”

“…Parece evidente que se necesitan más estudios de investigación en lengua castellana que ayuden a clarificar de manera cada vez más precisa el papel que juega la conciencia morfológica en el aprendizaje de la lectura y escritura de los escolares con dificultades de aprendizaje lecto-escritor. Es posible que algunas certezas se van constatando, como que la conciencia morfológica sí que es capaz de explicar parte de la varianza de lectura, escritura y comprensión de textos, en lengua castellana en escolares de desarrollo típico (Medina-Cárdenas & Rueda, 2018). Igual certeza, se puede plantear en relación con los mecanismos que intervienen en la escritura en castellano, y es que junto con el mecanismo fonológico y el ortográfico está también el morfológico (Alegría & Carrillo, 2014), aun siendo una lengua transparente y superficial.…”

“…There are few studies on the role of morphology in reading and writing in Spanish, perhaps due to the fact that morphology is not quite as important as it is in opaque languages like English or French. However, it seems that in Spanish, too, morphology can play an interesting role in explaining writing (Alegría & Carrillo, 2014), reading and comprehension (Medina-Cárdenas & Rueda, 2018) The morphology of a language regulates how words are constructed and what combinations of morphemes are possible or impossible. Morphological awareness is the ability to reflect on and/or manipulate morphemes and to use a language's word-formation rules (Kuo & Anderson, 2006, p. 161).…”
