Resumen

Investigamos los predictores longitudinales de la lectura y escritura de palabras y pseudopalabras con diferente estructura silábica en una ortografía transparente. Participaron 47 menores de 3º de Educación Infantil a 2º de Educación Primaria cuya lengua materna era el español. Al principio y al final del año escolar se evaluó el conocimiento de las letras, el conocimiento fonológico y la denominación rápida automatizada y al principio del año siguiente se evaluaron las habilidades de lectura y escritura. Los análisis de regresión múltiple jerárquica revelaron que el conocimiento de las letras fue el predictor más fuerte de la lectura y la escritura de palabras y pseudopalabras con sílabas simples después de 6 y 12 meses. El conocimiento fonológico predijo la lectura y escritura de estímulos con sílabas complejas. El análisis de mediación confirmó el papel mediador del conocimiento fonológico en la relación entre el conocimiento de las letras y la lectura y escritura con estímulos silábicos complejos. Esta investigación proporciona evidencia longitudinal de que la estructura silábica determina el papel del conocimiento de las letras y el conocimiento fonológico en las habilidades de lectura y escritura en español. Comprender qué conocimientos son esenciales para aprender a leer y escribir puede conducir al perfeccionamiento de métodos y materiales de alfabetización en lengua española.
