Running head: FIXATION POSITIONS ON MISSPELLED WORDS Orthographic Familiarity Influences Initial Eye Fixation Positions in Reading
An important issue in the understanding of eye movements in reading is what kind of non-foveal information can influence where we move our eyes. In Experiment 1, first fixation landing positions were nearer the beginning of misspelled words. Experiment 2 showed that the informativeness of word beginnings does not influence where words are first fixated. In both experiments, refixations were mor...
متن کاملEye movement control in reading: word predictability has little influence on initial landing positions in words
We examined the initial landing position of the eyes in target words that were either predictable or unpredictable from the preceding sentence context. Although readers skipped over predictable words more than unpredictable words and spent less time on predictable words when they did fixate on them, there was no difference in the launch site of the saccade to the target word. Moreover, there wa...

15 صفحه اولLexical predictability exerts robust effects on fixation duration, but not on initial landing position during reading.
An eye movement experiment was conducted to examine effects of local lexical predictability on fixation durations and fixation locations during sentence reading. In the high-predictability condition, a verb strongly constrained the lexical identity of the following word, while in the low-predictability condition the target word could not be predicted on the basis of the verb. The results showed...
متن کاملWord length and landing position effects during reading in children and adults
The present study examined the effects of word length on children's eye movement behaviour when other variables were carefully controlled. Importantly, the results showed that word length influenced children's reading times and fixation positions on words. Furthermore, children exhibited stronger word length effects than adults in gaze durations and refixations. Adults and children generally di...
