The Influence of Reading Purpose on Inference Generation and Comprehension in Reading
There are variations in the extent to which particular types of inferences or activations are made during reading ( G. McKoon & R. Ratcliff, 1992 ; M. Singer, 1994 ). In this study, the authors investigated the influence of reading purpose (for entertainment or study) on inference generation. Pa...

| description | There are variations in the extent to which particular
types of inferences or activations are made during reading (
G. McKoon & R. Ratcliff, 1992
;
M. Singer, 1994
). In this
study, the authors investigated the influence of reading purpose
(for entertainment or study) on inference generation. Participants
read 2 texts aloud and 2 texts for comprehension measures. Reading
purpose did not influence off-line behavior (comprehension) but did
influence on-line reader behavior (thinking aloud). Readers with a
study purpose more often repeated the text, acknowledged a lack of
background knowledge, and evaluated the text content and writing
than did readers with an entertainment purpose. This pattern was
stronger for the expository text than for the narrative text.
Reading purpose, and possibly text type, affects the kinds of
inferences that readers generate. Hence, inferential activities are
at least partially under the reader's strategic control. |
