- Title
FEMALES' SUPERIORITY ON PHONOLOGICAL AND LEXICAL PROCESSING.
- Authors
Taha, Haitham
- Abstract
Gender differences in Arabic spelling accuracy of 288 Arabic speaking students from grade 1 to grade 9 were assessed. The spelling errors of these students were analyzed according to the paradigm of Abu-Rabia and Taha (2004). The results showed that generally across all ages/grades girls made fewer spelling errors, especially in the phonological and semiphonological spelling errors categories. The results are discussed in light of the international language research findings.
