Predicting multiple-text integration
This study investigated how single-text reading comprehension and individual differences contribute to multiple-text integration. One hundred fourteen students read sets of multiple texts on two distinct topics and completed two multiple-text integration tasks for each topic: an essay and a sentence verification task. The tasks were evaluated across three integration levels: selecting main ideas, forming generalizations, and generating deep-level…
The effect of practice and expectancy of inferential questions on poor comprehenders' inferential processing and monitoring
Background Previous studies have shown that undergraduates improve their answering and monitoring accuracy when they exclusively practice and expect inferential questions after reading. This study examined whether children with poor comprehension, who struggle particularly with inferential questions, would benefit from similar practice with and without feedback. Methods To address this question, 44 poor comprehenders and 44 control participants f…
The Role of Time Constraints and Domain Knowledge in Reading Comprehension Tests
The present study examined the processing and performance of examinees in reading comprehension (RC) tests, when they read the whole text prior to its questions ( text‐first strategy [TFs]) compared to reading the text while and for answering the questions ( questions‐first strategy [QFs]). Previous studies have been inconclusive regarding the benefit of TFs, and no studies to date have indicated a benefit for QFs, although test‐taking guidebooks…
Do dyslexic individuals present a reduced visual attention span? Evidence from visual recognition tasks of non-verbal multi-character arrays
On the priority of salience-based interpretations
Results from 2 experiments support the view that, regardless of strength of contextual expectation for utterance nonsalient (ironic) interpretation, (a) salience-based interpretations will not be blocked. Instead, they will be facilitated initially. And, (b) if conducive to the interpretation process, they will not be suppressed, albeit incompatible (Giora 2003; Giora and Fein 1999a; Giora and Fein 1999b; Giora et al. 2007). In Experiment 1, expe…
A cognitive account of discourse understanding and discourse interpretation
Text interpretation - the main interest of discourse analysts - is a central component of the text understanding process. In this article we introduce the Landscape Model, which describes the cognitive processes underlying reading comprehension in a detailed and precise manner. Moreover, this model captures the interpretative processes in which the human mind engages during reading. Within the context of the Landscape Model, we describe the relat…
