Some Models of the Reading Process
READING IS A cognitive process involving most of the brain functions: sensory, motor, language, attention, expectancy, coding, categorization, comprehension, selection, and the various kinds of memory. The process is discussed in terms of models, begining with the acquisition of meaning, language and reading skill by the child, and then examining skilled reading. Special emphasis is laid on visual memory, and on the three processes of matching, c…
Remembering Advance Cues During Searching
A classification is given of the various ways in which advance information may be displayed to help performance, and a distinction is drawn between two kinds of work. These are tasks in which advance information (1) always remains on view until after action has been taken, and (2) is displayed but must be memorized, because it disappears before action is required. A particular laboratory task of order search has been studied; this has the advanta…
Visual Search for Successive Decisions
When a situation provides information from many different independent sources, characteristic difficulties arise, even when the decisions required are of the simplest possible kind and do not require estimates of probability. This paper considers the effect of the amount of material in the display which must be searched for the correct answer, and also how this display load interacts with the speed at which decisions are required, in a situation …
