PACHECO, Virginia; ORTEGA, Mauricio  y  CARPIO, Claudio. Effects of Reader Response and Use of Examples on Written Composition. Rev. colomb. psicol. [online]. 2013, vol.22, n.1, pp.13-34. ISSN 0121-5469.

The article presents the results of a research project aimed at evaluating the role of reader response and the use of examples in the writing procedures used by university students. Two sessions were held. In the first one, 36 writers described a figure and a route on a map; in the second, the writers were divided into three groups: DM: 12 writers modified their descriptions on the basis of examples of similar procedures and of drawings made by 12 readers; D: 12 writers modified their texts on the basis of the drawings made by 12 readers; and SDSM: 12 writers made changes without having seen either drawings or examples. Groups DM and D produced more precise descriptions. The paper discusses the relevance of analyzing writing interactions with respect to the purpose and complexity of the task.

Palabras clave : written composition; reference interactions; feedback, readers' responses; university students.
