Title: Eye movements and integrating information across fixations. Author: Rayner K, McConkie GW, Ehrlich S. Journal: J Exp Psychol Hum Percept Perform; 1978 Nov; 4(4):529-44. PubMed ID: 722245. Abstract: A series of experiments was conducted in which a word or letter string initially appeared in parafoveal vision, followed by the subject's eye movement to the stimulus. During the saccade, the initially displayed stimulus was replaced by a word that the subject was asked to read. The results indicated that the types of prior parafoveal information studied facilitated the naming of the word. The effect was obtained when the subject made an eye movement and when the saccade was simulated. There was also evidence that attentional allocation was tied to the direction of the eye movement.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
