The purpose is to examine the psychological processes underlying reading (and language comprehension more generally) in healthy, literate adults, focusing particularly on how the representation of information in memory supports and constrains processing. This will contribute to a greater understanding of the basic processes involved in reading, which may lead to improvements in education and more effective uses of information technology.
You will read sentences and answer comprehension questions on a computer while your eye movements are recorded by an eye-tracking device.
