An early effect of the parafoveal preview on post-saccadic processing of English words
A key aspect of efficient visual processing is to use current and previous information to make predictions about what we will see next. In natural...

Saccade execution increases the preview effect with faces: An EEG and eye-tracking coregistration study
Under naturalistic viewing conditions, humans conduct about three to four saccadic eye movements per second. These dynamics imply that in real life,...

Joint contributions of preview and task instructions on visual search strategy selection
People tend to employ suboptimal attention control strategies during visual search. Here we question why people are suboptimal, specifically...

Mask-related costs in measuring preview benefit: Evidence from a distributional analysis based on target word reading times
Skilled reading involves processing the upcoming word in parafoveal vision before it is fixated, leading to shorter fixations on that word. This...

Neural mechanism underlying preview effects and masked priming effects in visual word processing
Two classic experimental paradigms – masked repetition priming and the boundary paradigm – have played a pivotal role in understanding the process of...
-
Preview frequency effects in reading: evidence from Chinese
Studies about sentence reading have shown that visual and lexical information beyond the currently fixated word can be integrated across fixations....

Processing difficulty while reading words with neighbors is not due to increased foveal load: Evidence from eye movements
Words with high orthographic relatedness are termed “word neighbors” ( angle/angel ; birch/birth ). Activation-based models of word recognition assume...

Contextual cueing in preview search
Frequently finding a target in the same location within a familiar context reduces search time, relative to search for objects appearing in novel...

The go no-go reviewing paradigm: A reliable method for measuring perceptual object-file updating
The object-file framework explains how object continuity is maintained as objects move: it stipulates that when we focus our attention on an object,...

Parafoveal processing of repeated words during reading
In an eye-tracking experiment during reading, we examined the repetition effect, whereby words that are repeated in the same paragraph receive...

Shared translation in second language activates unrelated words in first language
The present study explored bilingual coactivation during natural monolingual sentence-reading comprehension. Native Chinese readers who had learned...

Neural correlates for word-frequency effect in Chinese natural reading
Word frequency effect has always been of interest for reading research because of its critical role in exploring mental processing underlying reading...
-
Parafoveal processing of underlying phonological information during Korean sentence reading
The question of whether phonological information is integrated through the parafovea has remained unanswered particularly in Korean sentence reading....
-
The role of visual crowding in eye movements during reading: Effects of text spacing
Visual crowding, generally defined as the deleterious influence of clutter on visual discrimination, is a form of inhibitory interaction between...
-
Preview of partial stimulus information in search prioritizes features and conjunctions, not locations
Visual search often requires combining information on distinct visual features such as color and orientation, but how the visual system does this is...

Guessing as a learning intervention: A meta-analytic review of the prequestion effect
Giving students test questions before they have learned the correct answers (i.e., prequestions) enhances learning. However, existing research has...

Can intentional forgetting reduce the cross-race effect in memory?
Across three studies, we utilized an item-method directed forgetting (DF) procedure with faces of different races to investigate the magnitude of...
-
Target-rate effect in continuous visual search
From infrared body temperature surveillance to lifeguarding, real-life visual search is usually continuous and comes with rare targets. Previous...

The impact of Diglossia-Effect on Reading Acquisition Among Arabic-Speaking Children: A Longitudinal Study
Arabic is a diglossic language, where two language varieties are used: spoken Arabic (SpA) and standard Arabic (StA). The words may be "identical"...

Attenuating the ‘attentional white bear’ effect enhances suppressive attention
Trying to ignore an object can bias attention towards it – a phenomenon referred to as the ‘attentional white bear’ (AWB) effect. The mechanisms...
