Summary

Descripción general del contenido del recurso.

Studies carried out in alphabetic languages show that morphological awareness is related to the success in recognizing words and comprehension in reading and spelling. This study investigated whether morphological awareness contributes to reading in Portuguese and whether this contribution is independent of the cognitive aspects of language such as vocabulary and memory. The sample was of 52 children, of those 25 were from the 2nd grade and 27 from 3rd grade. The results of Pearson correlations showed that morphological awareness is associated to reading, but when memory and vocabulary are controlled this relationship is significant for 3rd grade only. Keywords: metalinguistic awareness; morphological awareness; cognition; literacy; reading.
