Resumen
[EN]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, subjectsread paragraphs in which
verb tense was manipulated to assign current and past attributes (job descriptions) to a main charac ter. 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.
