The findings regarding whether L2 morphological awareness predicted L1 reading are inconsistent.
“However, the findings regard -ing whether L2 morphological awareness predicted L1 reading are inconsistent.”

The lack of difference between L2 and L1 readers in morphological inferencing can be attributed to the recruitment of L1 vocabulary.
“Possibly, this can be attributed to the recruitment of L1 vocabulary (Ramirez et al., 2010) as well as enhanced metalinguistic awareness (Adesope et al., 2010) and good decoding skills (Raudszus et al., 2018).”

“At the same time, this finding also contradicts those of others (Jarvis & Odlin, 2000; Ramirez et al., 2010; Saiegh-Haddad & Geva, 2008; Wang et al., 2009), who contended that only a one-way transfer of morphological skills was possible, from languages with transparent orthography (such as Arabic, Spanish, Finnish and…”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
