Visual Factors and Eye Movements in Reading.
Year: 1981
Type: article
Abstract: The effects of oculomotor behavior of variations of physical attributes of text, both typographical and psychological parameters, and similar effects from physical (visual as opposed to semantic) word cues processed in the reader’s parafoveal vision are discussed. It is concluded that the reliability of such effects underscores the primary nature of visual discrimination in reading. Furthermore, sets of data generated from typographically different stimuli suffer a serious confounding.
