Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we conducted basic surveys and developed diagnostic assessment for Japanese children at-risk of reading and writing difficulties in English. As a result, we developed in-class assessment of basic English literacy and phonological awareness that can be conducted within one class hour at elementary and middle school. Next, we established two-stage screening process that consists of capital-letter writing and basic word-reading/spelling tasks. Finally, we further examined utilities of the task based on the results of children with developmental dyslexia. Based on these findings, we laid the foundation of early identification and appropriate intervention for elementary and middle school students with a risk of reading and writing difficulties in English.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
英語は、2020年度に小学校でも必修化され、5-6年生では教科化された。これに伴い、発達性ディスレクシア等を背景とした英語読み書き困難の増加、早期化が想定される。本研究成果は、英語圏を中心に進められてきた読み書きおよび音韻意識の検査について、日本語母語児の実態を明らかにし、検査適用を可能にした点で学術的意義を有する。また、本研究成果は、本邦の英語読み書き困難に対する教育的・医療的対応の早期化かつ適正化への貢献が期待される点で、社会的意義も高いと考えられる。
