Supporting older adults for their reading comprehension of procedural sentences -Analysis of signaling effects-

为了使指令的结构清晰，技术作者经常通过在它们之间插入间距和标题等信号来突出程序句的顶层结构。呈现这些信号被称为信号。信号传导对老年人阅读理解的影响尚未得到研究。但是，先前的研究表明，信号将组织策略转变为更复杂的组织策略，这种中介作用促进了老年人对组织策略的阅读理解和记忆（策略转换假说）。根据这一假设，当使用促进策略变化的信号时，它们可以支持老年人阅读和记忆程序性句子。从执行本课题的研究中，可以明确老年人手语效应的机制。本研究通过对信号显性性的影响来探讨信号的认知老化机制。我们可以操作信号的显式级别，尽管有许多类型的信号。实验对象根据显式程度分为三组：无显式组、低显式组和高显式组。本研究的目的是探讨不同的信号显式如何促进老年人阅读理解过程中的策略变化，并通过这种中介作用提高老年人阅读理解和程序句记忆的认知老化机制。在研究1中，对无显性组和低显性组进行了比较。在研究2中，对非显性组和高显性组进行了比较。基于这两项研究，每项发现都被整合起来。在此基础上，研究了不同信号对老年人程序性句子记忆的影响及其认知老化机制。少

Technical writers often highlight the top-level structure of procedural sentences by means of signals such as spacing and headings inserted between them in order to make the structure of instructions clear. Presenting these signals is called as signaling. Signaling effects on reading comprehension with older adults have not been studied yet. But, the previous studies related to this theme suggest that signaling changes organizational strategies into more sophisticated ones and this mediation promotes reading comprehension and memory of them by older adults (Strategy Switch Hypothesis). According to this hypothesis, when signals promoting that strategy changes are used, they can support older adults for their reading and memory of procedural sentences. From the study conducted to perform this object, the mechanism of signing effects with older adults can be made clear.This study investigated the effect of explicitness of signals in order to consider the cognitive aging mechanism of sign … More aling effects on older adults' memory of procedural sentences. We could operate the explicitness levels of signaling, though there are many types of signaling. According to levels of explicitness, experimental participants could be divided into three groups : No-Explicitness Group, Low-Explicitness Group, and High-Explicitness Group. The object of this study is to investigate the cognitive aging mechanism how different explicitness of signaling promotes strategy changes during reading comprehension processes and this mediation increases reading comprehension and memory of procedural sentences by older adults.In the Study 1, comparison between No-Explicitness Group and Low-Explicitness Group was made. In the study 2, comparison between No-Explicitness Group and High-Explicitness Group was made. Based on these two studies, each finding was integrated. After that, the cognitive aging mechanism how different signaling has effects on memory of procedural sentences by older adults was investigated. Less
