The macrostructure of an argument concerns how its component statements fit together as a whole.
After the macrostructure of a material has been evaluated, specific features can then be examined microscopically.
Its macrostructure is shorter and key concepts and semantically related words are organized in a simpler way.
This may be described as structuralism with a profile of clear, somewhat cautious, growth, from microstructure to macrostructure.
The comparison shows that the comprehension of textual macrostructure does not necessarily imply comprehension along essential dimensions such as the text's communicative or pragmatic function.
In the first g roup, the magnitude of the length effect was a predictor of macrostructure recall but not of the recall of details.
Noise introduced in microstructure would eventually find its way into macrostructure and vice versa.
