Seduction of the Strategic Reader: Effects of Interest on Strategies and Recall.
Wade, Suzanne E.; And Others
Reading Research Quarterly, v28 n2 p92-114 Apr-Jun 1993
Investigates how interest and importance interact to affect the strategy use and recall of skilled readers. Finds that readers acted strategically, except when they encountered seductive details: subjects spent a great deal of time on seductive details, even though they considered them highly memorable and unimportant.
