Fixation disparity during reading : Fusion , not suppression
Towards the centre of the human retina there is a small area called the fovea that is responsible for providing very high acuity visual information to the visual system. While visual information is available from areas other than the fovea, it is less rich in detail since acuity falls off very rapidly from the centre of the fovea to the retinal periphery (see Balota & Rayner, 1991). Thus, in or...
متن کاملBinocularity during reading fixations: Properties of the minimum fixation disparity
The present study was based on the physiologically reasonable assumption that the binocular system aims for a reduction of fixation disparity during fixation and that the minimum amount of fixation disparity reflects the optimal binocular status. We measured eye movements (EyeLink II) of 18 participants, while they read 60 sentences from the Potsdam-Sentence-Corpus (PSC) at a viewing distance o...
متن کامل“Trait” and “state” aspects of fixation disparity during reading
Eye movement research in reading has traditionally been associated with the investigation of visual processing and language comprehension (see, for example: (Kliegl, Nuthmann & Engbert, 2006, Liversedge, White, Findlay & Rayner, 2006b, Rayner, 1998)). Central to the description (and prediction) of eye movement behaviour during reading are saccades and fixations, which are traditionally extracte...
متن کاملPeriodic letter strokes within a word affect fixation disparity during reading.
We investigated the way in which binocular coordination in reading is affected by the spatial structure of text. Vergence eye movements were measured (EyeLink II) in 32 observers while they read 120 single German sentences (Potsdam Sentence Corpus) silently for comprehension. The similarity in shape between the neighboring strokes of component letters, as measured by the first peak in the horiz...
متن کاملLexical 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...
