From a perceptual learning perspective, infants use social information (like gaze direction) in a similar way as other information in our physical environment (like object movements) to specify action possibilities. In the current study, we assumed that infants are able to learn an affordance upon observing an adult failing to act out that…

The present experiments examined perceptual specificity effects using a rereading paradigm. Eye movements were monitored while participants read the same target word twice, in two different low-constraint sentence frames. The congruency of perceptual processing was manipulated by either presenting the target word in the same distortion typography…

Though previous research has attempted to correlate television viewing with educational outcomes, little research has been done to establish the links between modes of presentation, individual styles of learning, and achievement. Eye movements, for instance, are markedly responsive to differences in presentation, especially to such factors as the…

Much early research regarded television as a static medium, and it ignored the process of the information delivery and its match with the cognitive style of the viewer. Information processing should be looked at from the dual perspective of eye movement research and the degree of locus control. To uncover the interrelationships of efficient eye…
