The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Predilections for narrative outcomes: The impact of story contexts and reader preferences (2006, unknown): “…the constraints for generating predictive inferences (e.g., Calvo, 2000; Calvo & Castillo, 1996; Fincher-Kiefer, 1996; Klin, Guzma´n, & Levine, 1999; Linderholm, 2002; McKoon & Ratcliﬀ, 1986, 1992; Murray, Klin, & Myers, 1993; Peracchi & O (cid:1) Brien, 2004; van den Broek, 1990, 1994;…”
The neuropragmatics of 'simple' utterance comprehension: An ERP review (2009, background): “First, readers with high verbal working memory capacity or ‘reading span’, who are known to engage in more inferential activity ( Linderholm, 2002 ), generate larger Nref effects than readers with more limited capacity (Nieuwland & Van Berkum, 2006b).”
Neuroimaging Contributions to the Understanding of Discourse Processes (2006, methodology): “Maguire et al. (1999), using Bransford and Johnson (1972) passages with or without titles, also found these same areas to be active in linking textual information with subjects’ prior knowledge.”
Anticipating upcoming words in discourse: evidence from ERPs and reading times. (2005, unknown): “In text comprehension research, for example, considerable effort has been made to determine the extent to which readers make predictive inferences from an unfolding piece of text (e.g., Calvo, 2001; Calvo, Meseguer, & Carreiras, 2001; Campion & Rossi, 2001; Fincher-Kiefer, 1993, 1995, 1996; Graesser”
