Discourse Processes《话语过程》(一年10期). Discourse Processes is a multidisciplinary journal providing a forum for cross-fertilization of ideas from diverse disciplines sharing a common interest in discourse–prose comprehension and recall,dialogue analysis,text grammar construction,computer simulation of natural language,cross-cultural comparisons of communicative competence,or related topics. The problems posed by multisentence contexts and the methods required to investigate them,although not always unique to discourse,are sufficiently distinct so as to require an organized mode of scientific interaction made possible through the journal.
