In three experiments, we explored the role of verb tense and verb aspect in subjects' construction of mental models while reading. In the first and second experiments, subjects read paragraphs in which verb tense was manipulated to assign current and past attributes (job descriptions) to a main character. The results showed that on-line accessibility was faster for current attributes. The results of the third experiment showed that verb aspect manipulations regarding character actions affect the speed at which the characters are available for recognition.
在三个实验中，我们探究了动词时态和动词体在受试者阅读时构建心理模型过程中的作用。在第一个和第二个实验中，受试者阅读段落，其中动词时态被操控以将当前和过去的属性（工作描述）赋予一个主要角色。结果表明，当前属性的在线可及性更快。第三个实验的结果表明，关于角色动作的动词体操控会影响角色可供识别的速度。
