Preventing Writing Difficulties: The Effects of Planning Strategy Instruction on the Writing Performance of Struggling Writers (2004, background): “Prior research has shown that extra handwriting and spelling instruction (Berninger et al., 1997; Berninger et al., 1998; Graham et al., 2000, 2002; Jones & Christensen, 1999) can help ameliorate early writing difficulties.”
Student- and instruction-level predictors of narrative writing in third-grade students (2008, background): “These studies have shown that handwriting and spelling instruction improves text generation or the amount of words students wrote in their composition (see Berninger et al., 1997; Christensen, 2005; Graham, Harris, & Fink, 2000; Graham, Harris, & Fink-Chorzempa, 2002; Jones & Christensen, 1999).”

Teaching Spelling in the Primary Grades: A National Survey of Instructional Practices and Adaptations (2008, background): “This should help minimize spelling’s constraints on writing as well as facilitate the acquisition of foundational reading skills, such as word attack and word recognition (see Berninger et al., 1998, and S.

(2016, unknown): “Actually, the absence of composing practice in other transcription programs may explain why some failed to raise writing quality (e.g., Graham et al., 2000; Graham et al., 2002).”
