Kintsch and van Dijk's text-comprehension model (1978) proposed that readers attempt to interpret incoming sentences using the wording in previously mentioned sentences, and that only if the resulting interpretations are incoherent will they then use overall semantic structure. The research reported below supported this model. In interpreting an ambiguous pronoun in an incoming sentence, subjects could have matched the pronoun with either a character mentioned by name or pronominalized in the previous sentence. After their attention was focused on the ambiguous sentence (Exp. 1), they matched the pronoun with the previously pronominalized character, requiring use of information from the overall narrative. But when their attention was not focused on the ambiguous sentence (Exp. 2), they matched the pronoun with the name in the last sentence read.
