Generative Processes of Comprehension
Abstract
This article presents a model of the generative processes of reading comprehension. The article begins with a discussion of the four parts of the model: generation, motivation, attention, and memory. The discussion then reviews laboratory and classroom research relevant to the model. A series of experiments by the author and his colleagues are presented to support the instructional utility of the model. The article concludes with a discussion of the model and its relation to the teaching of reading comprehension in schools.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
