Long et al. (2006) found that the construction of situation model is conscious while the construction of text base is unconscious through the two paradigms（IRK and PDP） in text reading. This is inconsistent with the processing theory of Bi-mechanism in text-reading which states that the construction of situation model is unconscious in coherence-based reading while is conscious in focus-based reading. We think that the inconsistence is caused by the nature of experiment material. In this study, two experiments were designed to explore the consciousness of text representation in focus-based reading with both Independence-Remember-Know (IRK) and Process-Dissociation-Procedure (PDP) paradigms. A self-paced, line-by-line reading paradigm was used in this study. In experiment 1, 40 University students were asked to read 12 narrative passages. According to the relationship between the elaboration on a characteristic of the protagonist and the subsequent target action carried out by the protagonist, the independent variable had two levels: consistent version and qualified version. The dependent variable was the rate of “remember” or “know” judgment. Participants were randomly assigned to one of the two material sets. After reading all of the texts, participants received the recognition test. They were instructed to press a key labeled new if they believed the sentence did not appear in one of the texts they had read. Otherwise, the participants were instructed to press a key labeled old if they believed the sentence appeared in one of the texts they had read, then they were asked to decide whether they had a vivid, clear consciousness of the sentence; if so, they were asked to press a key labeled R (for remember). If they did not have a vivid, clear consciousness of the sentence but still believed the sentence had appeared in one of the texts, they were asked to press a key labeled K (for know). In experiment 2, 48 University students were asked to read 12 groups narrative passages. The independent variable was as same as that in experiment 1. The dependent variable was the hit rate of “Old” judgment and the false alarm rate of “New” judgment. Participants were randomly assigned to a material set. Each participant read twelve blocks of texts, and then they received a recognition test after each block. After reading one block, they were given one instruction (inclusion instruction or exclusion instruction). In inclusion test, participants were asked to respond old if the sentence appeared in either Story A or Story B and were asked to respond new to any new item. In exclusion test, participants were asked to respond old only if the sentence appeared in Story B and were asked to respond new if the sentence was from Story A or if the item was new. In these two experiments, there was remarkable difference between the consistent version and qualified version in the rate of consciousness and unconsciousness. The results showed that both the construction of situation model and textbase were conscious in focus-based reading. This research extended and deepened the processing theory of Bi-mechanism in text-reading.
