精细阐述在先行信息通达中的作用

先前研究发现，在篇章阅读理解中，先行信息与当前信息的合适与否是影响其通达的重要因素。本研究进一步引入精细阐述因素，通过窗口阅读及命名探测技术，以含错误信息的文章为阅读材料，探讨在篇章阅读理解中，精细阐述、信息的合适与否两者相比，何者对先行信息的通达速度影响更大。结果发现，如果错误信息受到精细阐述，在遇到相关的回指词时该信息会比合适、但未受精细阐述的先行信息更快得以通达，表明精细阐述在先行信息通达过程中具有相当重要的作用。

The Role of Elaboration in Accessing Antecedents in Text Comprehension

Previous studies found that the relationship of antec edents with cu rrent information would affect the access of antecedent information during readi ng. The appropriate anaphoric referents would be named faster than the inappropr iate ones. The present study further investigated whether the degree of elaborat ion was a more important factor that affects the process of antecedent reference as compared with the relationship of antecedents with current information. The p artici pants read a set of passages that included two kinds of antecedents, appropriately or inappropriately informed, with inappropriate antecedent s receivi ng additional elaboration. Using an on-line window display technique, the parti cipan ts read passages word by word and named the probe. The result showed that el aborated inappropriate antecedents were accessed more quickly than nonelaborated appropriate ones, which suggested that elaboration was the primary predictor of antecedent retrieval time.
