用移动窗口范式（G。W. McConkie & K. Rayner，1975）。两个实验表明，年龄较大的读者比年轻的读者具有更小和更对称的广度。老年阅读者的这两个特征（更小和更对称的广度）可能是他们对非中心凹信息的处理效率较低的结果，这导致了更危险的阅读策略。
The size of the perceptual span (or the span of effective vision) in older readers was examined with the moving window paradigm (G. W. McConkie & K. Rayner, 1975). Two experiments demonstrated that older readers have a smaller and more symmetric span than that of younger readers. These 2 characteristics (smaller and more symmetric span) of older readers may be a consequence of their less efficient processing of nonfoveal information, which results in a riskier reading strategy.
