Even children who were partial alphabetic spellers showed a slight but significant preference for final doublets.
In many cases they require linguistic insights on the part of the speller.
Thus, explicit attention to context sensitive spellings in spelling instruction may be a great help for poor spellers.
However, for the consonant spellings even the poor spellers showed a clear difference between context sensitive and wordspecific spellings.
The poor spellers performed on about the same level as younger inexperienced spellers.
The size of this effect was similar for all three groups of participants (normal, poor, and young inexperienced spellers).
The 29 poor spellers that participated in the present study all performed below the 10th percentile.
The speller, on the other hand, is an absolute joy.
