Schema Theory, Linguistic Theory, and Representations of Reading Comprehension.
Richgels, Donald J.
Journal of Educational Research, v76 n1 p54-62 Sep-Oct 1982
Two research areas, schema theory and linguistic theory, are described which have contributed to theories about language comprehension. Models of language comprehension conceptualized by Roger Schank, Carl Frederiksen, and Walter Kintsch are discussed in relation to the research and evaluated for practical use in reading instruction.
