For example, Aaron took a literal interpretation of the task and drew pictures of all the organisms in the environment they would be found.
The analysis identified some aspects of chronotopes that appear tightly connected to the interpretation of the task: 1) the future-oriented envisioning of potential trajectories of engagement; 2) definitions of the time structure of the activity; 3) consideration of chronotopic constraints; 4) monitoring of the task; 5) focus on the present moment.
The findings showed that in terms of the language functions, learners' interactional feedback exchanges are categorized as (1) exploratory (showing learners' reflection and interpretation of the task), (2) procedural (showing how learners handle the task of revising their texts) and (3) social (showing how learners maintain good relationships).
These inconsistencies between annotators come from the annotators' interpretation of the task-specific annotation guidelines, and are not the result of inability to operate the annotation editor.
This limits interpretation of the task × session interaction in reaction time, because it might be due to a speed-accuracy trade-off.
When analyzing the units of meaning a great variation in students´ answers was observed with regard to the interpretation of the task, the elaboration and the quality of the reflections.
Generally, however, interpretation of the task responses are complicated by the fact that breath-holding and hyperventilation tasks generally induce global tissue responses, i.e., responses which might be expected to affect both the scalp/skull and the cerebral hemodynamics.
Without implicitly using a cognitive interpretation of the task, it is hard to see how a theory devoid of the representational resources of cognitive theories can justify such a prediction (see also " General discussion").
