van Dijk&#8217;s text comprehension model<\/a>\u00a0formalizes three levels of representation:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>the first, surface level, corresponds to our ability to remember a word read in the text, without the meaning being taken into account;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>the second level corresponds to the integration of the meaning of the sentences independently;<\/li>\n<li>finally, the third level, called the situation model, accounts for the reader&#8217;s ability to develop a representation which is the product of the interaction between what he reads and his prior knowledge.\u00a0It is the ability to produce inferences.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Let&#8217;s take an example to understand what these inferences are.\u00a0Imagine that you had to answer the question \u201cWhere are Ana\u00efs and Julien?\u00a0in the following text: \u201cSaturday, Ana\u00efs and Julien saw lions and tigers\u201d.\u00a0The first inference that emerges from reading this sentence through our knowledge is most likely the zoo.\u00a0Now let&#8217;s add the sentence &#8220;Then the clown made them laugh a lot&#8221;.\u00a0The inference produced following the reading of the initial sentence must be inhibited, in favor of a new inference situating our two protagonists probably in the circus.\u00a0Let&#8217;s now conclude the text with the sentence \u201cMom then asked them to turn off the television to go to bed\u201d.\u00a0Here again, a new inference is set up: they were at home all along.<\/p>\n<p>Understanding therefore presupposes the implementation of different cognitive processing in parallel: memory, mental flexibility, updating of information, inhibition.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Scrolling fatigue<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Generally speaking, we can intuitively consider that reading on a screen or on paper does not modify our ability to understand a text: regardless of the medium, it is always a question of decoding graphic signs in order to attribute a meaning to them.\u00a0However,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cairn.info\/la-lecture-numerique--9782706122057.htm\">reading on screen<\/a>\u00a0supposes taking into consideration the ergonomic characteristics of the reading supports (size, luminosity, contrast, etc.) and the characteristics of the reader.<\/p>\n<p>A recent meta-analysis that compiles the results of 44 studies conducted with more than 170,000 participants on the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/S1747938X18300101\">effects of digital technology on reading<\/a>\u00a0tells us that, overall, comprehension is negatively impacted by reading on digital media compared to reading on paper.\u00a0Studies do not make it possible to identify any difference between the two media in terms of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.researchgate.net\/publication\/360716862_Reading-comprehension_performances_of_expository_and_narrative_texts_on_Interactive-Whiteboards_and_Paper_evidence_from_5th_grade_children\">comprehension in the case where full-page texts are consulted<\/a>\u00a0(without scrolling the text).<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, when we read on screen, we use a process of &#8220;scrolling&#8221; which consists of vertically scrolling the text, which is not without consequence on our ability to understand the information read.\u00a0It is very difficult to find information, a word or a sentence, after having scrolled through the text: the words no longer appear in the same place whereas, on paper, their spatial position does not change.\u00a0Scrolling disrupts the functioning of our spatial memory.\u00a0Locating the position of words in the text (spatial coding of words) is particularly useful for quickly returning to the words of the text, an essential process for comprehension.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cairn.info\/la-lecture-numerique--9782706122057.htm\">backlighting of the screens<\/a>\u00a0on which we read, which involves the projection of a light source towards the user, is not without consequence on our ability to read information.\u00a0Several studies have shown its harmful effect on reading.<\/p>\n<p>The ability to take in visual information is reduced on screen and requires more eye fixations when reading texts.\u00a0This results in increased visual fatigue, associated with various symptoms (headaches, chronic migraines, etc.), especially when reading activity is prolonged or performed on poor quality interfaces (with poor contrast between background and color , reduced line spacing increasing visual clutter).\u00a0These deleterious effects are not listed on the readers, which are not backlit but have electronic ink.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>On the Internet, a superficial reading?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>For the adult reader, reading is an automatic and rapid activity because the systematic learning of the correspondence between graphemes (letters, groups of letters) and phonemes (sounds) and the development of the mental lexicon make it possible in particular to free up cognitive resources. necessary for the implementation of the comprehension process.\u00a0Our reading speed varies depending on the reading goal we have set for ourselves.<\/p>\n<p>When we browse web pages, we read information-rich pages, conveying sometimes very short and dynamic messages intended to be more accessible in terms of quantity of content and therefore speed of reading.\u00a0This gives a superficial side to the reading, which becomes skimming.<\/p>\n<p>This superficial reading corresponds more to a search for information than to an in-depth reading aimed at understanding a concept, for example.\u00a0Attention is disturbed in particular by the presence of multiple windows, the appearance of notifications, the presence of hypertext links which will allow us to navigate but will also contribute to disorienting us in the face of the consequent flow of information present.<\/p>\n<p>A large amount of accessible information does not facilitate the extraction of the information necessary for decision-making, and can even lead to cognitive overload leading the reader to no longer be able to process the information effectively.\u00a0This is the principle of Hick&#8217;s Law: the time it takes for a user to make a decision increases with the number of choices available to them.<\/p>\n<p>A study by Gary W. Small and his co-authors looked at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ajgponline.org\/article\/S1064-7481(12)60731-3\/fulltext\">brain changes associated with internet use<\/a>\u00a0.\u00a0The objective was to compare the areas of the brain activated in expert and novice Internet users, by asking them to carry out reading or information-seeking activities.<\/p>\n<p>Data from brain imaging shows that when reading text, the brain areas activated (controlling language, memory and vision) are similar regardless of the level of Internet expertise.\u00a0On the other hand, during the search for information, additional zones are activated in the experts: those of the regions controlling decision-making and complex reasoning.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_68075\" style=\"width: 690px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-68075\" class=\"size-full wp-image-68075\" src=\"https:\/\/world.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/brainstudy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"680\" height=\"306\" srcset=\"https:\/\/world.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/brainstudy.jpg 680w, https:\/\/world.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/brainstudy-250x113.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-68075\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Comparing brain areas activated in expert and novice internet users, based on the study by Small et al., 2009.
