作者研究了叙事情景模型中的空间距离度量。在3个实验中，可及性的空间梯度的情况下的模型进行了观察：包含在情况下的模型中的对象的可及性随着对象和读者的注意力的焦点之间的空间距离的增加而下降。前两个实验表明，这种空间距离的影响纯粹是分类的，而不是欧几里得的：可达性取决于物体和注意力焦点之间的房间数量，而不是房间的大小。然而，实验3显示，参与者能够在必要时在次要任务中使用有关欧几里得距离的信息。这些结果的影响理论的叙事理解和层次与非层次理论的空间记忆进行了讨论。
The authors investigated the metrics of spatial distance represented in situation models of narratives. In 3 experiments, a spatial gradient of accessibility in situation models was observed: The accessibility of objects contained in the situation model decreased with increasing spatial distance between the object and the reader's focus of attention. The first 2 experiments demonstrated that this effect of spatial distance was purely categorical rather than Euclidean: Accessibility depended on the number of rooms located between the object and the focus of attention, not on the size of the rooms. Experiment 3 revealed, however, that participants were able to use information about Euclidean distance in a secondary task when necessary. The implications of these results for theories of narrative comprehension and hierarchical versus nonhierarchical theories of spatial memory are discussed.
