In this article, the authors examined readers' sensitivity to the match between characters' goals and characters' actions. In Experiment 1, readers integrated actions consistent with characters' goals more easily when there was a match between the extremeness of the actions and the urgency of the goals. In Experiments 2 and 3, characters' actions were consistent with either explicit or implicit goals. Participants showed different sensitivity to the mismatch between actions and urgent goals when they simply read the actions (Experiment 2) versus when they judged the likelihood of the actions (Experiment 3). Taken together, these results offer an account of how readers experience actions and goals when engaged in both local and global processing.
在本文中，作者研究了读者对人物目标与人物行动之间匹配度的敏感度。在实验1中，当行动的极端程度与目标的紧迫性相匹配时，读者更容易整合与人物目标一致的行动。在实验2和实验3中，人物的行动与明确或隐含的目标一致。当参与者只是阅读行动（实验2）与判断行动的可能性（实验3）时，他们对行动与紧迫目标之间的不匹配表现出不同的敏感度。综合来看，这些结果说明了读者在进行局部和全局处理时如何体验行动和目标。
