|
|
Consistency in who or what is being talked about
|
Referential coherence
|
|
Consistency in the time in which events occur

|
Syntactic priming
|
|
Material having personal significance
|
High Interactional Content (HIC)
|
|
Material having little personal significance
|
Low Interactional Content (LIC)
|
|
The derivation of additional knowledge from facts already known; this might involve going beyond the text to maintain coherence or to elaborate on what was actually presented
|
inference
|
|
Following the meanings of words. Ex: Vlad is a bachelor, so Vlad is a male.
|
Logical inference
|
|
Help relate to previously given information
|
Bridging inferences (Backward inferences)
|
|
All inferences that are not logical
|
Pragmatic inferences
|
|
Extending the text with other world knowledge
|
Elaborative inferences
|
|
We automatically make bridging inferences, but keep elaborative inferences to a minimum
|
Minimalist hypothesis
|
|
An object that is linked to previous material by a bridging inference to maintain coherence
|
Open discourse role
|
|
Two or more noun phrases with the same reference. Often pronouns
|
Co-reference
|
|
the linguistic expression that must be taken into account in order to determine the referent of an anaphor (often the thing for which a pronoun is being substituted)
|
Antecedent
|
|
A linguistic expression for which the referent can only be determined by taking another linguistic expression into account - namely the anaphor's antecedent (the pronoun)
|
Anaphor
|
|
The amount of information an anaphor contains. Should either aid the identification of the antecedent, or add new information about it, or both.
|
Informational load
|
|
Initial search for referents is restricted to entities in common ground
|
Restricted search hypothesis
|
|
Initial search for referents is not restricted
|
Unrestricted search hypothesis
|
|
The smallest unit of meaning that can be put in predicate-argument form
|
Proposition
|
|
Whether a proposition is true or false
|
Truth value
|
|
the more facts that are associated with a concept, the slower the retrieval of any one of those facts
|
Fan effect
|
|
Ideas can be decomposed into small, atomic units. Text is represented by decomposing the incoming material into these atomic units, and by building a network that relates to them
|
Conceptual dependance theory
|
|
A means for organizing knowledge
|
Schema
|
|
represent our knowledge of routine actions and familiar repeated sequences. Ex. restaurant script
|
Script
|
|
Preview, questions, read, reflect, recite, review
