The semantic structure of texts can be described both at the local microlevel and at a more global macrolevel, and a model for text comprehension based on this notion accounts for the formation of a coherent semantic text base in terms of a cyclical process constrained by limitations of working memory.

It is proposed that concepts are coherent to the extent that they fit people's background knowledge or naive theories about the world and to structure the attributes that are internal to a concept.

Results indicate that during an acquisition phase of the experiments, Ss spontaneously integrate the information expressed by a number of non-consecutively experienced (but semantically related) sentences into wholistic, semantic ideas, where these ideas encompass more information than any acquisition sentence contained.

Six experiments support the assumptions of the proposed framework and the model is shown to be consistent with processing strategies in domains other than question answering, viz., dual-task monitoring in divided attention situations.

This chapter discusses that the process of understanding is, in large part, the assigning of new input conceptualizations to causal sequences and the inference of remembered conceptualizations that will allow for complete causal chains.

Across four experiments, subjects proved to be sensitive to configural information and tended to choose the case that preserved the correlation over the cases that broke the correlation, even when the case with correlated symptoms contained fewer typical symptoms.
Memory & CognitionMental models as representations of text
161 Citations1981Alan Garnham
The results confirm previous findings that memory for the content of a passage is not based on the construction of one of its linguistically motivated representations, however, unlike most previous findings, they do support a positive proposal about the nature of the representations on which memory for content is based.

This work provides an alternative framework for learning according to which category definitions must be based on category function, and examines the methodological underpinnings of the two approaches and compares their motivations.

Data indicate that subjects based their responses on a memory representation which preserved the input sequence of events, evidence against a strong schema-based approach to story memory which predicts construction of a canonically-ordered representation during processing.
