Using Kintsch's Discourse Comprehension Theory To Model the User's Coding of an Informative Message from an Enabling Information Retrieval System.
Cole, Charles; Mandelblatt, Bertie
Journal of the American Society for Information Science, v51 n11 p1033-1046 Sep 2000
Uses Kintsch's proposition-based construction-integration theory of discourse comprehension to detail the user coding operations that occur in each of the three subsystems (Perception, Comprehension, Application) in which users process an information retrieval systems (IRS) message. Describes an IRS device made up of two separate parts that enable the user's decoding and encoding of a message in the Comprehension subsystem. (Contains 100 references.) (Author/AEF)
