Abstract	Thirteen papers given by language specialists are presented. These analyze special linguistic (semantic) problems that occur when interconnected strings of sentences constitute data base; they also analyze special psychological problems (of memory, inference, and motivation) that occur when human subjects are exposed to discourse materials in laboratory or real-life settings. Workshop questions to be considered were: (1) Exactly what is "comprehension" of language?; (2) Can one identify distinct processes in comprehension?; (3) In what senses can there be different degrees, levels, or types of comprehension?; (4) How can we measure comprehension in terms of these levels or types?; (5) What factors in language stimulus, the situation or receiver influence degree and manner of comprehension?; and (6) What is relation between immediate comprehension and its representation in memory either on long or short term basis? Author and Subject Indexes are included. (NF)
