Musical aptitude, phonological awareness and reading fluency: the reading process in adult migrants learning Spanish

Previous studies on the reading process in additional languages (AL) have provided interesting data on the relationship between musical aptitude and reading skills, with phonological awareness being a predictor of fluency and comprehension. Most research has focused on literate readers learning an A...

description Previous studies on the reading process in additional languages (AL) have provided interesting data on the relationship between musical aptitude and reading skills, with phonological awareness being a predictor of fluency and comprehension. Most research has focused on literate readers learning an AL, while knowledge about the reading process in adults with low literacy levels in a migration context remains scarce. This study, in which 74 adult migrants participated, aims to explore the interaction between musical aptitude, phonological awareness, and oral reading fluency. To this end, linguistic and non-linguistic tests were administered to obtain data that would allow a relationship to be established between musical aptitude, operationalized as the ability to perceive non-linguistic rhythm, phonological awareness, and oral reading fluency.
