Implication

This study assesses how morphology and vocabulary affect lexical inference in typical and dyslexic readers, suggesting different predictors for performance.

Key Points

Children's ability to infer meanings from unfamiliar words depends on various factors, including vocabulary depth and morphological awareness.
Results indicated that typical readers outperformed dyslexic peers in all assessed tasks, highlighting disparities in reading abilities.
Regression analyses revealed unique predictors of inferencing, with decoding being crucial for dyslexic children and comprehension for typical readers.
These findings imply that typically developing readers use higher-order comprehension alongside vocabulary, whereas dyslexic readers rely more heavily on decoding.
