In this paper, we present a review of how the various aspects of any study using an eye
tracker (such as the instrument, methodology, environment, participant, etc.) affect the quality …

Given the increasing size of the older adult population in many countries, there is a pressing
need to identify the nature of aging-related vision impairments, their underlying …

Bouma's law of crowding predicts an uncrowded central window through which we can read
and a crowded periphery through which we cannot. The old discovery that readers make …

Our brains rapidly map incoming language onto what we hold to be true. Yet there are
claims that such integration and verification processes are delayed in sentences containing …

Fast, parallel word recognition, in expert readers, relies on sectors of the left ventral occipito-
temporal pathway collectively known as the visual word form area. This expertise is thought …

Our goal is to link spatial and temporal properties of letter recognition to reading speed for
text viewed centrally or in peripheral vision. We propose that the size of the visual span—the …

Reading in peripheral vision is slow and requires large print, posing substantial difficulty for
patients with central scotomata. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of print …

In two event-related potential (ERP) experiments, we determined to what extent Grice's
maxim of informativeness as well as pragmatic ability contributes to the incremental build-up …

The electrophysiology of language comprehension has long been dominated by research
on syntactic and semantic integration. However, to understand expressions like “he did it” or …

Word features in parafoveal vision influence eye movements during reading. The question of
whether readers extract semantic information from parafoveal words was studied in 3 …
