DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The long term-objective of this research program is to understand how operation of the cognitive components within the text processing system is coordinated, representing a significant advance beyond previous research examining particular component processes in isolation. The program centers around development of a theoretical account of the text processing system, which integrates text-processing research with basic research on automaticity and memory. Initial research will evaluate a core assumption of this theory, which states that components of the text processing system share a limited pool of processing resources. The basic experimental approach will be to examine the operation of a given component while varying the resource demands of another component (e.g., examining the extent to which inferences are formed when syntactic complexity is manipulated). Subsequent research will adapt this experimental approach to evaluate other core assumptions of the theory. Findings from this programmatic research will have important theoretical and applied implications.

描述（由申请人提供）：本研究计划的长期目标是了解文本处理系统内认知组件的操作是如何协调的，这是以前研究孤立地检查特定组件过程的重大进展。该计划围绕文本处理系统的理论帐户的发展，它将文本处理研究与自动性和记忆的基础研究相结合。最初的研究将评估该理论的核心假设，即文本处理系统的组件共享有限的处理资源池。基本的实验方法将是检查给定组件的操作，同时改变另一个组件的资源需求（例如，检查当操纵句法复杂性时形成推理的程度）。随后的研究将采用这种实验方法来评估该理论的其他核心假设。本研究的结果将具有重要的理论和应用意义。
