  This research paper addresses literacy skills in 9 and ten year old children who have never owned a mobile phone. Children were pretested to indicate their current readying, spelling and other literary skills. Children who had owned a mobile phone however tested significantly higher. Those who had not owned a mobile phone were observed over a 10-week period in which at the end they were retested for these same skills. These skills increased drastically. "In summary, this study has shown that allowing children access to mobile phones for text messaging over a 10-week period does not significantly advantage or disadvantage the children. However, textism use during texting was linked to spelling development and the number of messages send and received was linked to lexical retrieval skills."
