Abstract: In the information age, readers should routinely validate the incoming information during reading comprehension, so as to avoid the intrusion of wrong information or harmful information. The plausibility of information from a text influences the likelihood that this information becomes part of the text’s mental model. Text-based and knowledge-based validation strategies could be used to monitor the plausibility of information. In the conflict detection stage, knowledge-based and text-based validation strategies play a role in the same way. However, in the conflict resolution stage, knowledge-based validation strategy takes precedence over text-based validation strategy. More research should utilize the paradigm of neurophysiology or add the variables of information intensity and working memory into theory framework, so as to obtain a more profound understanding of the mechanism of validation.

Key words: plausibility effect, validation, two-step model of validation
