Phonological Computation and Missing Vowels : Mapping Lexical Involvement in Reading
size of the minimal phonological unit that is recovered in the reading process. Readers named
words in unpointed Hebrew that had many or few missing vowels in their printed forms. Naming
latencies were monotonically related to the number of missing vowels. Missing vowels had no
effects on lexical decision latencies. These results support a strong phonological model of naming
and suggest that even in deep orthographies, phonology is not retrieved from the mental lexicon as
a holistic lexical unit but is initially computed by applying letter-to-phoneme computation rules.

Although research has established that phonological awareness is a predictor of future reading skill, the effects of variant vs. contiguous presentations of grapheme-phoneme correspondences
