{"pk":33210,"title":"Representation of Knowledge in Memory: Evidence from Primed Recognition","subtitle":null,"abstract":"This paper investigates the relationship readers with different levels of prior knowledge construct among procedural text elements, specifically, among the goal, the actions and the outcome of a procedural text. Readers were either beginners, intermediates, or experts in using a particular software. Our hypothesis was that the main difference between the prior knowledge organization of beginner, intermediate, and advanced subjects was due to the relationship among a goal, the necessary actions to attain this goal, and the obtained outcome. An experiment using a primed recognition task with the goal as prime and both the outcome and the actions as targets confirmed this hypothesis. The primed recognition results were simulated with the Construction-Integration model of comprehension (Kintsch, 1998).","language":"eng","license":{"name":"","short_name":"","text":null,"url":""},"keywords":[],"section":"Long Papers","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3sz5j1m8","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Stephanie","middle_name":"","last_name":"Caillies","name_suffix":"","institution":"Universite de Provence","department":""},{"first_name":"Guy","middle_name":"","last_name":"Denhiere","name_suffix":"","institution":"CREPCO, Universite de Provence","department":""},{"first_name":"Walter","middle_name":"","last_name":"Kintsch","name_suffix":"","institution":"Institute of Cognitive Science, University of Colorado","department":""}],"date_submitted":null,"date_accepted":null,"date_published":"1998-01-01T18:00:00Z","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/33210/galley/24270/download/"}]}
