Publisher's Synopsis
Writing is a complex activity that places demands on cognitive resources. This volume presents original theory and research exploring the ways in which the sub-components of the writing process (generating and organizing content, producing grammatical sentences, etc.) differ in their cognitive demand, and examines how writers manage these when producing text. The book is recommended to writing researchers, cognitive psychologists and psycholinguists with an interest in attention and working memory in language production, as well as to any reader who seeks an understanding of the cognitive mechanisms that lie behind the writing process.
