Research in cognitive psychology, linguistics, and artificial
intelligence - the three disciplines that have the most direct
application to an understanding of the mental processes in reading
- is presented in this multilevel work, originally published in
1980, that attempts to provide a systematic and scientific basis
for understanding and building a comprehensive theory of reading
comprehension. The major focus is on understanding the processes
involved in the comprehension of written text. Underlying most of
the contributions is the assumption that skilled reading
comprehension requires a coordination of text with context in a way
that goes far beyond simply chaining together the meanings of a
string of decoded words. The topics discussed are divided into five
general areas: Global Issues; Text Structure; Language, Knowledge
of the World, and Inference; Effects of Prior Language Experience;
and Comprehension Strategies and Facilitators, and represent a
broad base of methodology and data that should be of interest not
only to those concerned with the reading process, but also to basic
science researchers in psychology, linguistics, artificial
intelligence, and related disciplines.
