Three
experiments examined the trade-off between text-based and task-based
importance. Text-based importance was defined as information in a
text that is important due to its structural relation to other text
segments. Task-based importance was defined as text information that
is important due to external constraints such as instructions. Undergraduates
in this study spontaneously adopted an interactive, compensatory strategy
in which task-based importance superseded the role of text-based importance.
Implications for reading instruction and practice were discussed.
