Eye Movements and the Perceptual Span in Beginning and Skilled Readers.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Rayner, Keith – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1986
Presents four experiments comparing the perceptual span in second-, fourth-, and sixth-grade readers and skilled adult readers. Suggests that the size of perceptual span is variable and influenced by text difficulty. Concludes that the size of perceptual span does not cause slow reading rates in beginning readers. (Author/DR)

Eye Movement Control in Reading: The Role of Word Boundaries.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Pollatsek, Alexander; Rayner, Keith – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1982
The functions of spaces between words in adult reading of text were investigated in three experiments. Results were consistent with a two-process theory in which filling parafoveal spaces disrupts guidance of the next eye movement and filling foveal spaces disrupts processing of the fixated word as well.
