Publisher's Synopsis
Memory-based text processing (MBP) is a label that has been used to refer to a theoretical perspective shared by contributors to this special issue. The articles are by researchers who either explicitly identify themselves as working within the memory-based text processing framework or have influenced the MBP approach and share many of its core assumptions. This special issue defines the domains addressed by MBP, identifies the major, shared assumptions of researchers representing the MBP perspective, and raises some challenges for MBP researchers.
