本研究采用眼动相关的显示变化技术研究了成人读者在阅读过程中是否从旁义词中提取语义信息。三种类型的旁视预览条件进行了对比：一个情绪化的词，一个中性的词，和一个相同的词条件。为了最大限度地有效地进行旁视操纵，高唤醒情绪词（性和威胁相关的和诅咒的话）被用作旁视预览。阅读者对目标词的注视模式没有发现旁视语义加工的证据。此外，瞳孔大小没有显示出情绪反应的迹象所引发的情绪词预览旁视。这些结果与以下观点相一致，即在阅读过程中，只有固定词被加工到语义水平。
An eye-movement-contingent display change technique was employed to study whether adult readers extract semantic information from parafoveal words during reading. Three types of parafoveal preview conditions were contrasted: an emotional word, a neutral word, and an identical word condition. To have a maximally effective parafoveal manipulation, high-arousal emotional words (sex- and threat-related and curse words) were used as parafoveal previews. Readers' eye fixation patterns around the target word revealed no evidence for parafoveal semantic processing. Furthermore, the pupil size showed no signs for an emotional response triggered by an emotional word previewed parafoveally. These results are consistent with the view that, as a rule, only the fixated word is processed to a semantic level during reading.
