Zusammenfassung
Visual attention span (VAS) is defined as the number of visual elements processed simultaneously in a multi-element array and is causally related to reading skills. VAS skills are influenced by orthographic depth, such that reading opaque orthographies boosts the VAS. Such orthography-specific VAS modulations are subject to crosslinguistic interactions in early bilinguals, leading to advantages (bootstrapping) associated with learning to read in an opaque orthography. This study aims to assess whether a bootstrapping effect in VAS also appears in L2 learners. Ninety speakers of Italian (transparent orthography) learning English were recruited (Age Mean = 17.14), including twenty-nine with a formal dyslexia diagnosis. Our results show that the VAS capacity of typical readers is modulated by English orthographic knowledge, providing first evidence that experience with a non-native orthography boosts VAS skills in L2 learners. This effect was reduced in dyslexic L2 learners, probably due to a VAS deficit.
