Reading Development and Diffic: BPS Textbooks in Psychology

Autor Kate Cain
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 apr 2010

Nivelul de expertiză propus în Reading Development and Difficulties este unul avansat, volumul fiind structurat pentru a dezvolta competențe analitice profunde în rândul studenților și cercetătorilor din psihologie și educație. Considerăm că abordarea propusă de Kate Cain este remarcabilă prin echilibrul dintre cele două piloni ai alfabetizării: recunoașterea mecanică a cuvintelor și procesele cognitive complexe necesare pentru înțelegerea textului. Spre deosebire de alte materiale care se concentrează exclusiv pe una dintre aceste direcții, acest manual oferă o viziune integrată, esențială pentru viitorii profesori și psihologi școlari. Apreciem în mod deosebit metodologia clară prin care sunt explicate mecanismele dezvoltării tipice, oferind astfel un punct de referință solid pentru identificarea și intervenția în cazul dificultăților de învățare. Stilul este riguros, dar accesibil, eliminând barierele terminologice pentru cei aflați la începutul studiilor de specialitate. Cartea nu se rezumă la teorie, ci oferă o examinare detaliată a barierelor cognitive care împiedică progresul elevilor, devenind o resursă metodologică de încredere. Ca alternativă la Reading and Understanding – An Introduction to the Psychology of Reading de G Underwood, care se concentrează pe procesele cognitive generale de transformare a simbolurilor în sens, lucrarea lui Kate Cain aduce avantajul unei structuri pedagogice mai bine adaptate nevoilor practice ale viitorilor pedagogi, punând un accent mai mare pe profilul dificultăților de citire. De asemenea, dacă o comparăm cu Understanding and Teaching Reading Comprehension de Jane Oakhill, care pune accentul pe strategii de predare, Reading Development and Difficulties oferă o bază teoretică mai extinsă despre fundamentele psihologice ale achiziției limbajului scris.

De ce să citești această carte

Recomandăm această carte studenților și cercetătorilor care doresc să înțeleagă mecanismele psihologice din spatele procesului de lectură. Cititorul câștigă o perspectivă clară asupra modului în care copiii învață să citească și, mai important, înțelege de ce apar obstacolele în acest proces. Este un instrument esențial pentru oricine dorește să fundamenteze intervențiile educaționale pe date științifice solide și pe o înțelegere profundă a psihologiei cognitive.


Descriere scurtă

This accessible text brings together research on word reading and comprehension development, which are often treated separately, and provides a comprehensive and detailed introductory text to reading development and difficulties.
Key features include:

  • An introduction to the important issues in reading research and the skills involved in reading words and understanding text, from the point of view of both a beginner and a skilled reader
  • A consideration of the similarities and differences between written and spoken language, and the advantages and disadvantages of different methodological approaches
  • An examination of how failures in reading comprehension skills can create difficulties and disorders
  • A consideration of the implications of this research for the teaching of reading and the diagnosis and treatment of reading difficulties

This text will be useful to many different groups of readers, not only researchers and students in psychology but also those who work in more applied settings, such as students in education and speech and language therapy, who may have a limited background knowledge of the psychology of reading.
