Native Chinese readers' eye movements were monitored as they read text that did or not demark word boundary information. In Experiment 1, sentences had 4 types of spacing: normal unspaced text, with spaces between words, characters yielded nonwords, and finally every character. The authors investigated whether the introduction into facilitates reading or, alternatively, character is a unit information primary importance in reading. Global local measures indicated unfamiliar spaced format...
Eye movements of native Chinese readers were monitored as they read sentences containing target words that varied in terms word frequency and character frequency. There was an effect on fixation times a it comparable size to typically found with English. Furthermore, also influenced time the word. The initial two more pronounced than second character. However, modulated attenuated high while quite apparent low words.
The present study examined children and adults' eye movement behavior when reading word spaced unspaced Chinese text. results showed that interword spacing reduced first pass times refixation probabilities indicating spaces between words facilitated identification. Word effects occurred to a similar degree for both adults, though there were differential landing position single multiple fixation situations in groups; clear preferred viewing location fixations, whereas positions closer...
The effect of spacing in relation to word segmentation was examined for four groups non-native Chinese speakers (American, Korean, Japanese, and Thai) who were learning as second language. sentences with types information used: unspaced text, word-spaced character-spaced nonword-spaced text. Also, participants' native languages different terms their basic characteristics: English Korean are spaced, whereas the other two unspaced; Japanese is character based three alphabetic. Thus, we...
AbstractEye movements of native Chinese readers were monitored when they read sentences containing single-character target words orthogonally manipulated for frequency and visual complexity (number strokes). Both factors yielded strong main effects on skipping probability but no interaction, with visually simple high more often. However, an interaction between was observed the fixation times longer fixations low frequency, complex words. The results demonstrate that have independent...
Research using alphabetic languages shows that, compared to young adults, older adults employ a risky reading strategy in which they are more likely guess word identities and skip words compensate for their slower processing of text. However, little is known about how ageing affects behaviour naturally unspaced, logographic like Chinese. Accordingly, assess the generality age-related changes across different writing systems we undertook an eye movement investigation adult age differences...
The mechanisms driving the development of eye movement patterns is an unresolved debate in children during reading, with three competing hypotheses: oculomotor-tuning hypothesis, linguistic-proficiency and combined hypothesis that incorporates both. This study examined 215 Chinese from first to fifth grade using sentence-reading tasks. Oculomotor maturation was measured through saccade tasks, linguistic abilities were assessed character recognition vocabulary knowledge tests. Path analysis...
For most deaf readers, learning to read is a challenging task. Visual word recognition crucial during reading; however, little known about the cognitive mechanism of Chinese readers visual recognition. In present study, two experiments explored activation orthographic, phonological, and sign language representations Eye movements were recorded as participants sentences containing orthographically similar words, homophones, language-related or unrelated words. All showed shorter reading times...
Chinese written language is different from alphabetic languages in many respects, and for this reason, interest the nature of cognitive processes underlying reading has flourished over recent years. A number researchers have used eye movement methodology as a measure on-line processing to understand more about during text comprehension. This Special Issue focuses on current research investigating paper provides brief background area concise overview papers that appear Issue.
Readers' eye movements were monitored as they read Chinese two-constituent compound words in sentence contexts. The first compound-word constituent was either an infrequent character with a highly predictable second or frequent unpredictable constituent. parafoveal preview of the manipulated, four conditions: identical to correct form; semantically related constituent; unrelated and pseudocharacter. An invisible boundary set between two constituents; when eyes moved across boundary,...
A word's length in English is fundamental determining whether readers fixate it, and how long they spend processing it during reading. Chinese unspaced, most words are two characters long: Is word an important cue to eye guidance reading? Eye movements were recorded as participants read sentences containing a one-, two-, or three-character matched for frequency. Results showed that longer took process (primarily driven by refixations). Furthermore, skips fewer, incoming saccades longer,...
