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 کاملFoveal processing difficulty does not modulate non-foveal orthographic influences on fixation positions
Two experiments show that eye fixations land nearer to the beginning of misspelled than correctly spelled beginning words during sentence reading. The effect holds regardless of whether the previous word is easy (high frequency) or difficult (low frequency) to process. In Experiment 1, the misspelled words were directly fixated. In Experiment 2, a saccade contingent change technique was used su...
متن کاملEye movement control during reading: Effects of word frequency and orthographic familiarity.
Word frequency and orthographic familiarity were independently manipulated as readers' eye movements were recorded. Word frequency influenced fixation durations and the probability of word skipping when orthographic familiarity was controlled. These results indicate that lexical processing of words can influence saccade programming (as shown by fixation durations and which words are fixated). O...
متن کاملRunning head: EYE LANDING POSITIONS DURING READING Linguistic and Non-Linguistic Influences on the Eyes’ Landing Positions During Reading
Two eye tracking experiments show that, for near launch sites, the eyes land nearer to the beginning of words with orthographically irregular than regular initial letter sequences. In addition, the characteristics of words, at least at the level of orthography, influence the direction and length of within word saccades. Importantly, these effects hold both for lower case and visually less disti...
متن کاملVisual, orthographic, phonological, and lexical influences in reading.
The fuzzy logical model of perception (FLMP), used as a framework to analyze phenomena in reading, asserts that there are multiple influences on reading performance. Experiments on the dynamic interaction of letter information and orthographic context are presented. Previous results have supported the FLMP over a variety of interactive activation models. These findings indicated that lateral ma...
