Riffo, Bernardo; Guerra, Ernesto; Rojas, Carlos; Novoa, Abraham; Veliz, Mónica – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2020
The association between a word and typical location (e.g., cloud-up) appears to modulate healthy individuals' response times and visual attention. This study examined whether similar effects can be observed in a clinical population characterized by difficulties in both spatial representation and lexical processing. In an eye-tracking experiment,…

Smail Layes; Kamel Layes – Arab Journal of Applied Linguistics, 2023
The purpose of this follow-up study was to determine the specific contribution of phonological processing abilities, including phonological awareness (PA), rapid automatized naming (RAN) and verbal short-term memory (VSTM), as well as visual perception (VP), in word reading accuracy. A sample of 62 native Arabic speaking children from Grade 1…

Liu, Tianyin; Chuk, Tin Yim; Yeh, Su-Ling; Hsiao, Janet H. – Cognitive Science, 2016
Expertise in Chinese character recognition is marked by reduced holistic processing (HP), which depends mainly on writing rather than reading experience. Here we show that, while simplified and traditional Chinese readers demonstrated a similar level of HP when processing characters shared between the simplified and traditional scripts, simplified…

Gagl, Benjamin; Hawelka, Stefan; Richlan, Fabio; Schuster, Sarah; Hutzler, Florian – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2014
The study investigated parafoveal preprocessing by the means of the classical invisible boundary paradigm and a novel manipulation of the parafoveal previews (i.e., visual degradation). Eye movements were investigated on 5-letter target words with constraining (i.e., highly informative) initial letters or similarly constraining final letters.…

Gordon, Peter C.; Plummer, Patrick; Choi, Wonil – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2013
Serial attention models of eye-movement control during reading were evaluated in an eye-tracking experiment that examined how lexical activation combines with visual information in the parafovea to affect word skipping (where a word is not fixated during first-pass reading). Lexical activation was manipulated by repetition priming created through…

Angele, Bernhard; Rayner, Keith – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2013
One of the words that readers of English skip most often is the definite article "the". Most accounts of reading assume that in order for a reader to skip a word, it must have received some lexical processing. The definite article is skipped so regularly, however, that the oculomotor system might have learned to skip the letter string…

Hsiao, Janet H.; Lam, Sze Man – Cognitive Science, 2013
Through computational modeling, here we examine whether visual and task characteristics of writing systems alone can account for lateralization differences in visual word recognition between different languages without assuming influence from left hemisphere (LH) lateralized language processes. We apply a hemispheric processing model of face…

Right Visual Field Advantage in Parafoveal Processing: Evidence from Eye-Fixation-Related Potentials
Simola, Jaana; Holmqvist, Kenneth; Lindgren, Magnus – Brain and Language, 2009
Readers acquire information outside the current eye fixation. Previous research indicates that having only the fixated word available slows reading, but when the next word is visible, reading is almost as fast as when the whole line is seen. Parafoveal-on-foveal effects are interpreted to reflect that the characteristics of a parafoveal word can…

Shaki, Samuel; Fischer, Martin H. – Cognition, 2008
Small numbers are spontaneously associated with left space and larger numbers with right space (the SNARC effect), for example when classifying numbers by parity. This effect is often attributed to reading habits but a causal link has so far never been documented. We report that bilingual Russian-Hebrew readers show a SNARC effect after reading…

Chen, Hsuan-Chih; Tang, Chi-Kong – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 1998
Investigates the size and shape of the effective visual field in Chinese reading by systematically manipulating the availability of meaningful information on both sides of a fixated character. Shows that the effective visual field was asymmetric and skewed in the direction of scanning with a highly limited size, composed of the fixated character…

Henderson, Leslie – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1975
This contradicts N. F. Johnson's arguments that word perception does not follow letter perception and that letter analysis awaits identification of the word as a unit. His experiments lack controls, and uncontrolled factors may contribute to his effects. Johnson's implications for prior-letter-processing models are contradicted. (CHK)

Henk, William A. – 1982
Behaviorism cannot adequately explain language processing. A synthesis of the psycholinguistic and information processing approaches of cognitive psychology, however, can provide the basis for a speculative analysis of reading, if this synthesis is tempered by a perceptual learning theory of uncertainty reduction. Theorists of information…

Massaro, Dominic W. – Visible Language, 1978
Presents a language processing model that distinguishes four functional components of reading and listening: feature detection, primary recognition, secondary recognition, and rehearsal and recoding. Uses the model to describe and incorporate some recent research. (GT)

Monaghan, Padraic; Shillcock, Richard; McDonald, Scott – Brain and Language, 2004
We report a series of neural network models of semantic processing of single English words in the left and the right hemispheres of the brain. We implement the foveal splitting of the visual field and assess the influence of this splitting on a mapping from orthography to semantic representations in single word reading. The models were trained on…

Mental Chronometry during Fixations in Reading: Processing Orthographic Characteristics of the Text.
Reddix, Michael D.; And Others – 1985
Thirty-six college students read a portion of a contemporary novel presented on a cathode ray tube while their eye movements were being monitored and recorded in an effort to determine how soon after the onset of a fixation during reading the mind begins to deal with characteristics of the language being perceived. The passage contained a total of…
