Readers' trait-based models of characters in narrative comprehension
Article Abstract:
Readers were found to readily apply trait-based situation models to narrative characters from trait inferences. Expectations were shown to be more narrowly defined by specific traits than by general inferences and reading pace slowed when story completions lacked consistency with trait-based models.

Prime validity affects masked repetition priming: evidence for an episodic resource account of priming
Article Abstract:
Research suggests resource recruitment is more probable when resource validity is high, creating a context supporting prime recruitment. Prime validity can be anticipated by an episodic use of masked priming where a prime event creates a resource that can be used in assisting word identification.
