Dynamic modeling of eye-movement control in reading

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Our research on eye-movement control during reading combines gaze-contingent displaychangeexperiments, corpus analysis, and computational modeling (Kliegl, 2007; Risse, Engbert, & Kliegl, 2008). During the first funding period, we have contributed new results to several, ongoing theoretical controversies relating to serial vs. distributed processing,oculomotor constraints, and the properties of the perceptual span. Arguably, with Its furtherdevelopment, the SWIFT model is still the most comprehensive proposal in the field. Duringthe next period, we will expand the model with simulation of individual differences, modelanalyses, and model comparison (continued from the first period). We will also carry outgaze-contingent display-change experiments on the type and time-course of parafoveal processing and simulate the results with SWIFT. We will extend our research by integratingsentence-level psycholinguistic processing into the SWIFT-model. Finally, we continue ourcorpus-analytic research on individual differences and cross-language comparisons.
