Many recent studies have shown that writing, especially if alphabetic, can influence the phonological competence of speakers; e.g., in tasks such as counting the number of phones or constructing rhymes.

Starting from the recognition of the relevance of reading and writing in human cognition, the paper proposes a new research path, devoted to the writing of children affected by dysgraphia and dyslexia, compared with that of control subjects. Until now, writing has been relatively neglected by the literature, since the etiology of both disorders was considered essentially phonological. Instead, the author believes that the analysis of writing as well as the study of manual skills and of the dynamic sequences underlying writing can shed new light on the reading–writing processes both in the normo–typical development and in the atypical one.

Molti studi recenti hanno dimostrato che la scrittura, soprattutto se alfabetica, può influenzare la competenza fonologica dei parlanti; ad esempio, in compiti come il conteggio dei foni o la costruzione di rime. Sembra quindi esistere una stretta relazione tra la scrittura e l’esecuzione di compiti meta–fonologici. Partendo dal riconoscimento della rilevanza della lettura e della scrittura nella cognizione umana, il lavoro propone un nuovo percorso di ricerca, dedicato alla scrittura dei bambini affetti da disgrafia e dislessia confrontata con quella dei soggetti di controllo. Finora, la scrittura è stata relativamente trascurata dalla letteratura, poiché l’eziologia di entrambi i disturbi era considerata essenzialmente fonologica. L’autore ritiene invece che l’analisi della scrittura e lo studio delle abilità manuali e delle sequenze dinamiche alla base della scrittura possano gettare nuova luce sui processi di letturacrittura sia nello sviluppo normotipico sia in quello atipico. Viene inoltre presentato e discusso un modello originale basato su una griglia ben definita di tratti distintivi in grado di rappresentare le varie lettere alfabetiche.

Abstract
Many recent studies have shown that writing, especially if alphabetic, can influence the phonological competence of speakers; e.g., in tasks such as counting the number of phones or constructing rhymes. Therefore, there seems to be a close relationship between writing and the performance of meta–phonological tasks. Starting from the recognition of the relevance of reading and writing in human cognition, the paper proposes a new research path, devoted to the writing of children affected by dysgraphia and dyslexia, compared with that of control subjects. Until now, writing has been relatively neglected by the literature, since the etiology of both disorders was considered essentially phonological. Instead, the author believes that the analysis of writing as well as the study of manual skills and of the dynamic sequences underlying writing can shed new light on the reading–writing processes both in the normo–typical development and in the atypical one. An original model based on a well–defined grid of distinctive features that can represent the various alphabetic letters is also presented and discussed.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
