This was an assumption baked into the analysis, which specifically defined vertical attention scores as attention toward a sentence. We had some results showing that token-level vertical attention tended to be more similar to other vertical attention scores within-sentence rather than between-sentence, which supports this assumption. However, we don’t have any more formal results to report. However, even without such results, by looking at sentences, we are able to do analyses contrasting categories, which wouldn’t be possible with tokens.
