Synopsis
Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject Didactics - English - Pedagogy, Literature Studies, grade: Sehr Gut, University of Graz (Institut für Anglistik), course: Linguistics Seminar (Beyond Interpretation: Cognitive and Psycholinguistic Aspects of Reading Research), language: English, abstract: "A person's future opportunities for success and prosperity will be even more entwined with skilled reading abilities.

Wherever we go outside our homes, we will see and read print, even so in more deprived areas, such as on hiking trails, where instead of advertising wallpapers we are likely to encounter signposts that guide us. Since information transfer is reserved to both oral and written communication in modern society, reading remains the only option to decode writing. However, developing reading skills is more than just improving one's word recognition and decoding abilities. GRABE points out that "most words build phonological activation prior to lexical access" (2009: 24) in the word recognition process that combines the interactive areas of orthography, phonology and meaning.
