Morphemes, spelling and development: Comments on "The timing and mechanisms of children's use of morphological information in spelling" by S. Pacton and H. Deacon
In our comments on Pacton and Deacon's discussion of children's spelling of morphemes we raise four issues: (1) whether the "timing" question should be about children's ages or about their psychological processes; (2) the crucial importance of individual differences in the s...
