PACHECO, Virginia; ORTEGA, Mauricio  e  CARPIO, Claudio. WRITTEN COMPOSITION IN UNIVERSITY STUDENTS: ROLE OF THE VISUAL CONTACT ON THE TEXT REVISION. Suma Psicol. [online]. 2011, vol.18, n.2, pp.29-40. ISSN 0121-4381.

We evaluated the role of the visual contact with what the writer writes, on the coherence and precision. 24 students of psychology read an article of a diary, later they wrote a quote and their opinion. In the second session, conducted similar tasks but read another article. There were 2 groups, in one, the participants did not have visual contact with what was writing (NCV) and in other one did have visual contact (CV). The group CV wrote more precise texts. Both groups reached similar indexes of coherence. There is discussed that the relevancy of revision what one writes depends on other elements of the specific written interaction. It is suggested to revaluate the concept of revision in the analysis of the elaboration of texts.
