Reader Imposed Structure and Prose Retention.
Grabe, Mark D.
Contemporary Educational Psychology, v4 n2 p162-71 Apr 1979
Two experiments investigated the impact of a reader's perspective on prose learning: (1) subjects read stories from one of two directed perspectives or with no directed perspective; or (2) readers organized and familiarized themselves with a perspective before the perspective was applied to a story. Perspective influenced recall and organization. (Author/RD)
