• Orthographic Mapping in the Acquisition of Sight Word Reading, Spelling Memory, and Vocabulary Learning (2014, background): “They learn about the statistical properties of spellings involving the co-occurrence of letters (Treiman & Kessler, 2006).”
• A statistical learning perspective on children's learning about graphotactic and morphological regularities in spelling. (2008, background): “In empirical studies of pseudowords, Treiman and her colleagues reported that, as early as Grade 1, children’s spellings of vowels ( Treiman & Kessler, 2006 ) and consonants (Hayes, Treiman, & Kessler, 2006) were influenced by the surrounding consonants and vowels.”
