Bringing Life to Literature and Literature to Life: Social Constructs and Contexts of Four Adolescent Readers.
Hynds, Susan
Research in the Teaching of English, v23 n1 p30-61 Feb 1989
Examines social influences on the reading processes of four adolescent readers, as well as the relationship between social-cognition and these readers' responses to short stories. Suggests that competence, pragmatics, and volition are intricately related to the likelihood that readers will bring social-cognitive processes to bear on reading. (SR)
