Abstract

The goal of this study was to examine predictions derived from the Lexical Quality Hypothesis (Perfetti & Hart, 2002; Perfetti, 2007) regarding relations among word-decoding, working-memory capacity, and the ability to integrate new concepts into a developing discourse representation. Hierarchical Linear Modeling was used to quantify the effects of two text properties (length and number of new concepts) on reading times of focal and spillover sentences, with variance in those effects estimated as a function of individual difference factors (decoding, vocabulary, print exposure, and working-memory capacity). The analysis revealed complex, cross-level interactions that complement the Lexical Quality Hypothesis.

叙事理解过程中读者与文本互动的建模:词汇质量假说的检验。

本研究的目的是检验来自词汇质量假说的预测(Perfetti & Hart, 2002;Perfetti, 2007)关于单词解码，工作记忆容量和将新概念整合到发展中的话语表征中的能力之间的关系。分层线性模型用于量化两种文本属性(长度和新概念的数量)对焦点句和溢出句阅读时间的影响，并将这些影响的方差估计为个体差异因素(解码、词汇量、印刷曝光和工作记忆容量)的函数。分析揭示了复杂的、跨层次的相互作用，这补充了词汇质量假说。

期刊介绍： Discourse Processes is a multidisciplinary journal providing a forum for cross-fertilization of ideas from diverse disciplines sharing a common interest in discourse--prose comprehension and recall, dialogue analysis, text grammar construction, computer simulation of natural language, cross-cultural comparisons of communicative competence, or related topics. The problems posed by multisentence contexts and the methods required to investigate them, although not always unique to discourse, are sufficiently distinct so as to require an organized mode of scientific interaction made possible through the journal.
