Abstract

In the last decades a great deal of research in Basic and Educational Psychology has explored how people process discourse and text. Thus, today there is consensus on what happens in the mind during text processing and what kind of mental representation results from such processing. In the present paper we review research to date on the question. Specifically, we explain text comprehension, processes of text comprehension, and failures to comprehend texts. Research on text comprehension is still very alive: There remains a number of open questions. Accordingly, in the second portion of the paper we review advances in research on text comprehension, describing the new areas of research and the main findings, including reading context, learning from text, embodied meaning, and new technologies in research.
