Abstract
Recent research shows that suprasegmental phonology is related to children’s reading development, independently of phonological awareness. The purpose of the study is to examine longitudinally the role of the suprasegmental phonology skills on literacy skills one year later beyond phonological awareness. 124 five year old Spanish children participated in this 1-year longitudinal study. Non-verbal intelligence, vocabulary and suprasegmental phonology along with measures of phonological awareness, reading and spelling were assessed. Hierarchical regression analyses revealed that after controlling for individual differences in phonological awareness, suprasegmental phonology skills were able to predict unique variance in literacy measures 1 year later. This study supports the contribution of suprasegmental phonology in children’s literacy development in early years.
