Katz University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign View: Marcon article from v4 n1 Lonigan commentary on Marcon article Marcon response to Lonigan commentary Editor's introduction to the discussion Discussion: Contribute to the discussion Read online discussion (pending) In this issue of Early Childhood Research & Practice, we are pleased to include the comments of Professor Christopher Lonigan on the article by Professor Rebecca Marcon titled "Moving up the Grades: Relationship between Preschool Model and Later School Success," published in volume 4, number 1, Spring 2002, and Professor Marcon's response to those comments. This kind of scholarly exchange is precisely what we had hoped to encourage by distributing a press release announcing the publication of Marcon's paper, and we hope that readers will find it engaging. In addition, we hope that addressing this topic and the complexities of conducting reliable longitudinal research will lead to a stronger commitment to supporting more such research. Professor Lonigan's suggestion that the distribution of the press release may have been "more about politics than about science" and his reference to "politically motivated dissemination of misinformation" should not distract us from the important issues he raises about how to interpret the complex data presented by Marcon. Professor Lonigan is associate professor of psychology at Florida State University and associate director of the Florida Center for Reading Research (http://www.fcmorgi). He has worked with Grover "Russ" Whitehurst, director of the Institute of Education Sciences, on emergent literacy and related issues, including the development of the National Center for Learning Disabilities' "Get Ready to Read" screening tool (http://www.getreadytoread.org/research.html). Recent publications include "Development and Promotion of Emergent Literacy Skills in Preschool Children At-Risk of Reading Difficulties" in Preventing and Remediating Reading Difficulties: Bringing Science to Scale (B. Foorman, ed.), and "Temperamental Basis of Anxiety Disorders in Children" (with B. M. Phillips) in The Developmental Psychopathology of Anxiety (M. W. Vasey & M. R. Dadds, eds.). Professor Marcon is a developmental psychologist and a professor of psychology at the University of North Florida. After working as a school psychologist in the barrios of East Los Angeles, she has held faculty positions in the Departments
