Abstract
The order, association and variability of the language of request are different in every language and culture, because it is based not only on different rules in the given culture but also on the dichotomy of language processing- global and detail language processing. The study is focused on the investigation of modelling language processing in terms of human cognition. The transaction/sequence model for text representation was used and an association rules analysis was applied as the research method. Based on the human cognition (category width cognitive style) of examined texts, different models of language processing were being created.
