Hand, Christopher, J. Miellet, Sebastien O'Donnell, Patrick, J. Sereno, Sara, C. 2010 A word’s frequency of occurrence and its predictability from a prior context are key factors determining how long the eyes remain on that word in normal reading. Past reaction-time and eye movement research can be distinguished by whether these variables, when combined, produce interactive or additive results, respectively. Our study addressed possible methodological limitations of prior experiments. Initial results showed additive effects of frequency and predictability. However, we additionally examined launch site (the distance from the pretarget fixation to the target) to index the extent of parafoveal target processing. Analyses revealed both additive and interactive effects on target fixations, with the nature of the interaction depending on the quality of the parafoveal preview. Target landing position and pretarget fixation time were also considered. Results were interpreted in terms of models of language processing and eye movement control. Our findings with respect to parafoveal preview and fixation time constraints aim to help parameterize eye movement behavior application/pdf https://folia.unifr.ch/global/documents/301943 https://folia.unifr.ch/documents/301943/files/hand_JEPHPP_2010.pdf eng info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/doi/10.1037/a0020363 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess License undefined Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance. - 2010, vol. 36, no. 5, p. 1294-1313 Reading Eye movements Word frequency Contextual predictability Launch site info:eu-repo/classification/udc/159.9 Word frequency and contextual predictability effects in reading: It depends where you’re coming from. http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501
