An introduction to latent semantic analysis

Thomas K. Landauer, Peter W. Foltz, Darrell Laham · 1 Jan 1998

Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) is a theory and method for extracting and representing the contextual‐usage meaning of words by statistical computations applied to a large corpus of text (Landauer & Dumais, 1997). The underlying idea is that the aggregate of all the word contexts in which a given word does and does not appear provides…

Transportation Into Narrative Worlds: The Role of Prior Knowledge and Perceived Realism

Melanie C. Green · 26 Jul 2004

"Transportation into a narrative world" (Green & Brock, 2000, 2002) has been identified as a mechanism of narrative impact. A transported individual is cognitively and emotionally involved in the story and may experience vivid mental images. In the study reported here, undergraduate participants (N = 152) read a narrative about a homosexual man attending his…

Gender Differences in Language Use: An Analysis of 14,000 Text Samples

Matthew L. Newman, Carla J. Groom, Lori D. Handelman et al. · 15 May 2008

Differences in the ways that men and women use language have long been of interest in the study of discourse. Despite extensive theorizing, actual empirical investigations have yet to converge on a coherent picture of gender differences in language. A significant reason is the lack of agreement over the best way to analyze language. In…

Toward a taxonomy of coherence relations

Ted Sanders, Wilbert Spooren, L.G.M. Noordman · 1 Jan 1992

Understanding a discourse means constructing a coherent representation of that discourse. Inferring coherence relations, such as cause‐consequence and claim‐argument, is a necessary condition for a discourse representation to be coherent. Despite some descriptively fairly adequate proposals in the literature, there is still no theoretically satisfying account of the links that make a discourse coherent. An…

The measurement of textual coherence with latent semantic analysis

Peter W. Foltz, Walter Kintsch, Thomas K. Landauer · 1 Jan 1998

Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) is used as a technique for measuring the coherence of texts. By comparing the vectors for 2 adjoining segments of text in a high‐dimensional semantic space, the method provides a characterization of the degree of semantic relatedness between the segments. We illustrate the approach for predicting coherence through reanalyzing sets of…
