Bridging Skill and Task-Oriented Reading
Some individual difference factors are more strongly correlated with performance on postreading questions when the text is not available than when it is. The present study explores if similar interactions occur with bridging skill, which refers to a reader's propensity to establish connections between explicit text during reading. Undergraduates read science texts using two research tools. The Reading Strategy-Assessment Tool provided a measure o…
A Connectionist Extension to Kintsch's Construction–Integration Model
This paper proposes an extension to Kintsch"s Construction Integration mode of text comprehension, which changes its mathematical implementation and emphasizes the connectionist features of the model. Specifically, the extension proposed here a) simulates the learning process in a connectionist manner by making explicit changes in the connecting values among processing units; b) takes into account individual differences in prior background knowle…
