“…The model that contains the concept of cognitive factors that affect writing ability is the writing process model (Grenner et al, 2020;. There are four cognitive factors that influence the quality of the final writing product, including text interpretation (text comprehension through language and memory, transcription (conversion of ideas into written text), executive function (attention, control, purpose, planning, checking, revision), and ability memory which includes verbal information processing, phonological abilities, and executive support that makes the connection between verbal abilities and general executive abilities (Varotsis, 2020;Yang et al, 2022). The following describes the cognitive factors involved in the writing process.…”

“…Previous research found that writing narrative and ordinary sentences requires different cognitive abilities. Visual skills can predict the performance of writing ordinary sentences and writing narratives (Lonigro et al, 2020;Varotsis, 2020). The task of writing ordinary sentences can show the literacy level of students, while the task of writing narrative requires complex cognitive and imaginative abilities, so that the ability to write narrative is included in the ability to write creatively.…”

This study aims to study the relationship between the writing process through an online learning system and students' writing products. This study also studied cognitive factors in the process component and the final product of writing. The study used a factorial analysis design because it aims to determine what factors contribute significantly to narrative writing skills. The students who became the sample were 125 students comprising 60 males and 65 females. The research findings show that the writing process component has a significant contribution to the quality of students' narrative writing. The process components that affect the quality of narrative writing are spelling ability and the number of revisions made by students. Cognitive components that affect students' writing skills are oral language skills, reading skills, selective attention, capitalization, and spelling. Thus, this component of the process of writing narrative text is only correlated with the cognitive abilities of spelling and reading, in contrast to the quality of the final product which is correlated with spoken language skills, attention, and working memory. The implication of this research is to strengthen the cognitive role in narrative writing; teachers must encourage students to be active in spoken language and optimize reading teaching in the learning process.

Introduction. The use of computer-mediated learning environments has become increasingly important in enhancing students' writing skills. This study aims to explore the complex relationship between cognitive activity and writing quality in computer-mediated learning settings. By doing so, it aims to provide valuable insights for improving students' writing proficiency and maximizing the benefits of technology in language education. Methods. A quantitative approach, specifically a quasi-experimental design, was employed in this study. Assessment grades were collected as quantitative data to evaluate various aspects of students' writing skills, including narrative writing, oral language proficiency, reading and writing abilities, as well as nonverbal skills and working memory. Results. The number of online revisions made by students emerged as a predictive measure for both the quality of narrative structure and the length of the text. Students who engaged in more extensive online revisions demonstrated the ability to produce narrative texts of higher quality and greater length. Discussion. This study provides valuable insights into the significance of online revisions, cognitive factors, and writing fluency in relation to the quality of narrative writing. It suggests that students possess revision skills but often postpone revisions until they have completed the initial draft. Furthermore, it highlights the positive influence of strong reading and spelling skills on spelling proficiency and revision abilities. The findings contribute to the existing literature and deepen our understanding of the relationship between narrative writing, cognition, and the impact of revision frequency on the quality of written narratives.
