【 摘 要 】

ABSTRACTPurpose: to verify the correlation between receptive vocabulary, syntactic awareness, and single-word orthographic writing tests.Methods: a total of 42 third graders from elementary public schools, of both genders, aged 8 to 9 years, participated in this study. To obtain the data, the vocabulary test through images, syntactic awareness test, word dictation test, and writing under dictation test were used. For normality distribution, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was used; in the relationship between the variables, the Spearman correlation test and the R2 value test were used (p-value ≤ 0.05).Results: there was a statistically significant difference, with a moderate positive correlation between receptive vocabulary, syntactic awareness, and word dictation (values near 0.40 to 0.50); moderate-to-high, between grammatical judgment, word dictation, and writing under dictation (values near 0.50 to 0.75); low-to-moderate, between word dictation and grammatical correction, grammatical and ungrammatical correction, and word categorization (values near 0.25 to 0.50); and moderate-to-high, between word dictation and writing under dictation (values near 0.50 to 0.75).Conclusion: a positive correlation was identified, ranging from low to high, pointing to the direct and favorable relationship between receptive vocabulary skills, syntactic awareness, and single-word writing.
