Methodologically, we used Bayesian ex-Gaussian mixed models to separate effects on the centres vs. tails of reading time distributions, with empirically informed priors. This approach revealed nuances traditional analyses miss! Paper: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... #BayesianStats
Parafoveal preview benefits magnified
This study investigated the impact of word-initial letters and contextual predictability on eye movements during reading. In two experiments, we manip…

🧠 We found those first few letters (trigrams) were crucial for all words during foveal processing, regardless of preview condition. This reveals the dynamic role of word beginnings across different stages of reading - different effects in peripheral vs. direct vision! #Psycholinguistics
