An eye-movement study of the parafoveal preview effect from words n+2 in Tibetan reading
Abstract
fixated words, but also extract information from the words that have not been fixed at on the right side of the fixated words for word
recognition, which is called the parafoveal preview eff ect. The relevant studies using the boundary paradigm to examine the preview eff ect
show that readers can obtain font, phonetic and semantic preview information from the parafoveal word n+1 in both alphabetic and Chinese
reading. However, the results of the research on n+2 preview eff ect of the parafoveal words are not consistent, which provides evidence
for the existence of n+2 preview eff ect in Chinese reading, while the results of the research on alphabetic characters are still controversial.
Therefore, as far as the present is concerned, there is no consistent result in the research on the preview eff ect of the word n+2. Tibetan is a
special language, which has the characteristics of both alphabetic and ideographic characters. A study of the preview eff ect of the parafoveal
words n+2 in Tibetan reading can further investigate whether the prediction of eye movement control model is correct in the reading process.
