Dear Dr. Hansen
I have done some research on the effects of Arabic and Hebrew deep
orthographies on reading comprehension and here are some of the references
that I used.


ABU-RABIA, Salim. 1995. Learning to read in Arabic: Reading, syntactic,
orthographic and working memory skills in normal achieving and poor Arabic
readers. Reading Psychology 16:4.351-94.
____. 1997a. Reading in Arabic orthography: The effect of vowels and context
on reading accuracy of poor and skilled readers in reading paragraphs,
sentences and isolated words. Journal of Psycholinguistic Research
26:4.465-83.
____. 1997b. The need for cross-cultural consideration in reading theory: The
effect of Arabic sentence context in skilled and poor readers. Journal of
Research in Reading 20:2.137-47.
BENTIN, Shlomo, 1989 Orthography and phonology in lexical decision: Evidence
from repetition effects at different lags. Journal of Experimental Psychology
15:1.61-72.
BENTIN, Shlomo, & FROST, Ram. 1987. Processing lexical ambiguity and visual
word recognition in deep orthography. Memory and Cognition 15:1.13-23.
RYAN, Ann, & MEARA Paul 1991. The case of invisible vowels: Arabic speakers
reading English words. Reading in a Foreign Language 7:2.531-40.
SHIMRON, Joseph, & SIVAN, Tamar. 1994. Reading proficiency and orthography:
Evidence from Hebrew and English. Language Learning 44.5-27.

Hope that will help
