Description
Sixty-one second-grade Spanish schoolchildren participated in a study linking prosodic skills to reading. The dataset contains assessments from the PEPS-C test battery, measuring prosody, reading comprehension, word/non-word reading, phonological awareness, and vocabulary. Nuria Calet and colleagues published the supporting research in Psicothema in 2022.
Use Cases
Modeling the relationship between prosodic skills and reading comprehension based on the described assessments.
Analyzing correlations between phonological awareness and vocabulary scores in Spanish-speaking children.
Training classifiers to predict reading skill levels from prosodic and cognitive assessment data.
Comparing word and non-word reading performance across different prosodic skill profiles.
Strengths
Data is directly linked to a peer-reviewed publication in Psicothema (2022).
Includes assessments from a standardized battery (PEPS-C) for prosodic skills.
Covers multiple related cognitive domains: reading comprehension, phonological awareness, and vocabulary.
Limitations
Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
Data may reflect geographic and demographic bias inherent to a single study of 61 Spanish children.
