Description: The collocation frequency of words in the language environment contributes to early vocabulary development. Vocabulary size, in turn, predicts children's reading comprehension skills later in development. Both collocation frequency and reading comprehension are related to inferential reasoning at different time points in development. In this study, we examined the relation between sensitvity to collocation frequency, vocabulary size and reading comprehension abilities of varying complexity in middle childhood. The study highlights sensitivity to collocation frequency as a link between early language comprehension development and reading comprehension in middle childhood.
