Eye movements reflect thought patterns while listening to literary narratives
Listeners experience different types of thoughts while listening to literary texts. • These thoughts are similar to those experienced while reading literary texts. • These thought patterns are reflected in eye-movement behaviour. • The dichotomy on/off task does not cover the whole range of thoughts listeners have. • Immersion can positively influence text comprehension outcomes. While listening to an audiobook, listeners’ attention may shift bet…
Do eye movements reflect readers’ thoughts during reading? Evidence from multidimensional experience sampling and eye movements
While reading narrative texts, readers' attention often fluctuates from the text (e.g., immersion) to text-unrelated thoughts (e.g., mind-wandering). Research on mind-wandering and immersion suggests that they influence the reading process differently. In this article, we examine the types of thoughts readers have while reading a literary text. Specifically, we investigated the effect of immersion and mind-wandering on eye-movement behaviour duri…
Using Eye Movements From a “Read‐Only” Task to Predict Text Comprehension
Recent research on the use of eye movements to predict performance on reading comprehension tasks suggests that while eye movements may be used to measure comprehension, the relationship between eye‐movement behavior and comprehension is influenced by differences in task demands between comprehension measures. In this study, we examined the usefulness of eye movements collected during reading with no additional task demands (a “read‐only” conditi…
Comprehending irony in text
Eyetracking studies have shown that readers reread ironic phrases when resolving their meaning. Moreover, it has been shown that the timecourse of processing ironic meaning is affected by reader’s working memory capacity (WMC). Irony is a context-dependent phenomenon but using traditional eye-movement measures it is difficult to analyze processing beyond sentence-level. A promising method to study individual differences in irony processing at the…
Using Eye‐Tracking Measures to Predict Reading Comprehension
This study examined the potential of eye‐tracking as a tool for assessing reading comprehension. We administered three widely used reading comprehension tests with varying task demands to 79 typical adult readers while monitoring their eye movements. In the York Assessment of Reading for Comprehension (YARC), participants were given passages of text to read silently, followed by comprehension questions. In the Gray Oral Reading Test (GORT‐5), par…
Large-scale replication study reveals a limit on probabilistic prediction in language comprehension
Do people routinely pre-activate the meaning and even the phonological form of upcoming words? The most acclaimed evidence for phonological prediction comes from a 2005 Nature Neuroscience publication by DeLong, Urbach and Kutas, who observed a graded modulation of electrical brain potentials (N400) to nouns and preceding articles by the probability that people use a word to continue the sentence fragment (‘cloze’). In our direct replication stud…
