In this section, I have revisited the claim that readers’ general knowledge wields a pervasive unconscious impact on their narrative experiences. I have argued that this impact is better conceptualized as the product of sets of memory traces that texts recruit rather than as preexisting memory structures such as schemas. This reconceptualization of how general knowledge functions provides a straightforward explanation of individual differences in narrative experiences. Because theories of text processing most often disagree with respect to their claims about unconscious processes, those processes have been the predominant focus of this section.
