o Construction-Integration Theory |
|
Definition
When reader’s comprehend a text, it becomes a part of their schema • Schema can then be accessed to understand future texts. The surface code, or written words, only stays in the iconic memory for a short period of time. • It must move through our short-term or working memory to then be processed into memory with more information and creates a “text base” |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Once text-base is formed & in long-term memory, begins to integrate details using this. The reader’s knowledge, goals/motivation to read, Strategy selected to understand text, ability to function in sociocultural context in which text is being read, genre of reading, processing of constraints of reader’s memory effect understanding. 2 phases occur when reader encounters these clauses: Construction phase and integration phase. |
