This study investigated the relationship between phonological and semantic processing of working memory during text comprehension. A dual-task method was used; the primary task was listening comprehension and the secondary ones were both of a phonological-judgment task and a semantic-judgment one. In each secondary task, two conditions were set; the large task demand condition and the small one. It was shown that listening comprehension was influenced by the semantic-judgment task in the large condition. However, in the small condition, influences by two secondary tasks were the same. Additionally, in the semantic-judgment task with large task demand condition, errors of complicated questions were increased.
