篇章阅读中信息加工的研究一直是文本心理学以及相关科学研究的热点问题。近几年,篇章阅读的动态理解观和计算机模型的影响力正逐步增大。与先前阅读加工观相比,动态理解观整合了阅读的即时加工和延时表征以及两者之间动态的相互关系,并试图捕捉篇章中的每一概念在整个阅读过程中不断变化的激活情况。利用计算机模型研究阅读加工则不像以往的研究方法都需要利用被试的实际阅读反应,在阅读理论的基础上编制的计算机模型能够模拟出人们阅读中的即时表现和阅读后的记忆内容,模拟的数据与行为学实验结果也非常一致。
The study of information process in discourse reading is a hot point in discourse psychology and other related researches. Recently, dynamic text comprehension view and computational model of discourse has been more and more popular. Compared to previous discourse theories, dynamic text comprehension view integrates the on-line process and off-line representation in reading course and the correlation between each other. It also tries to capture the activation fluctuation of all text concepts in the whole reading cycles. The method of using computational model to investigate discourse reading differs from other methods recording subjects' reading responses. The computer programme simulates information activation of readers and the outcome after reading. The simulation data is consistent with the result of behavior studies.
