代词的理解是促进了在语篇语境中的焦点所指。语篇聚焦被描述为注意力的一个功能，特别是共同注意力，但很少有研究明确地验证这一观点。两个实验使用了一个外源性的捕获线索范式来证明，在故事开始时，听者的视觉注意力会影响他们的偏好在代词解决以后的故事。在这两个实验中，试验初始注意调制听者的瞬时偏见，而考虑的代词，无论是在响应捕捉线索或没有。这些偏见甚至对听者对代词的最终解释产生了很小的影响。这些结果提供了独立的动机证据，听者的注意力影响代词理解的在线过程。试验初始注意力转移的基础上，非共享的，私人信息，表明注意力对代词理解的影响并不局限于对话者之间的共享注意。
Pronoun comprehension is facilitated for referents that are focused in the discourse context. Discourse focus has been described as a function of attention, especially shared attention, but few studies have explicitly tested this idea. Two experiments used an exogenous capture cue paradigm to demonstrate that listeners' visual attention at the onset of a story influences their preferences during pronoun resolution later in the story. In both experiments trial-initial attention modulated listeners' transitory biases while considering referents for the pronoun, whether it was in response to the capture cue or not. These biases even had a small influence on listeners' final interpretation of the pronoun. These results provide independently motivated evidence that the listener's attention influences the online processes of pronoun comprehension. Trial-initial attentional shifts were made on the basis of non-shared, private information, demonstrating that attentional effects on pronoun comprehension are not restricted to shared attention among interlocutors.
