BRAVO-VALDIVIESO, Luis; VILLALON, Malva  y  ORELLANA, Eugenia. Predictability of reading performance: a follow up study between first and third grades. Rev. Latinoam. Psicol. [online]. 2006, vol.38, n.1, pp. 9-20. ISSN 0120-0534.

This article presents the results of a follow-up study of 262 low socio-economic children between the entry to the first grade to the end of third grade. Children were assessed with several psycholinguistic tests at the moment of their entry to first grade and reassessed in reading at the end of each grade. Phonological awareness of the first phoneme, knowledge of the alphabetic letters and recognition of some written names, predicted reading and differentiated significantly between children with high and low performance in reading in first, second and third grade.
