In this study, the role of individual differences in working memory capacity with regard to text comprehension was investigated using the situation model perspective (Zwaan & Radvansky, 1998). One hundred and eight students participated in the study and gave a listening span test (LST) that tapped their verbal working memory, a dot matrix task (DMT) that tapped their spatial working memory, and completed a text comprehension task that tapped the construction of the text base and the situation model. The alternatives in the text comprehension task were of two types: text base (henceforth Text Base) and the situation model (henceforth Situation Model). Participants were required to recognize items and report their retrieval state. They had the option to recognize items from the text (In Text) or to make a guess (Guess). It was found that the DMT significantly and positively correlates with the retrieval rates in the conditions of Text Base and Situation Model, and that the correlation between the LST and the retrieval rates were smaller. This result suggests that spatial working memory plays a more important role in text comprehension. Furthermore, the predictive power of the DMT on the Situation Model was larger than that of Text Base. This result suggests that spatial working memory plays a more crucial role in the construction of the situation model. In addition, working memory tasks negatively correlated with the retrieval rates in the Guess condition, although these tasks positively correlated with the In Text retrieval rates. These results suggest that working memory plays an important role in the retrieval of episodic text memory and a restrictive role in the retrieval of semantic text memory.
