==== Good enough theory ====
The good enough approach to language comprehension, developed by [[Fernanda Ferreira (
processing of linguistic input. Rather, the system has a tendency to develop shallow and superficial representations
when confronted with some difficulty. The theory takes an approach that somewhat combines both the garden path model and the constraint based model. The theory focuses on two main issues. The first is that representations formed from complex or difficult material are often shallow and incomplete. The second is that limited information sources are often consulted in cases where the comprehension system encounters difficulty. The theory can be put to test using various experiments in psycholinguistics that involve garden path misinterpretation, etc.<ref>[http://csjarchive.cogsci.rpi.edu/proceedings/2009/papers/75/paper75.pdf "Good enough language processing: A satisficing approach] Fernanda Ferreira, Paul E.
