Week 4 reading

Self-paced reading

The plan for week 4

This week we are looking at a paper on self-paced reading (Enochsen & Culbertson, 2015), then in this week’s practical you’ll get a chance to look at a simple self-paced reading experiment in jsPsych.

In a self-paced reading experiment participants read sentences word by word. The measure of interest involves looking at where they are slowed down, with slowing indicating processing difficulties and potentially telling us something about e.g. lexical representations or the structure of the grammar involved.
