Abstract

Eye tracking, the online registration of language users' eye movements, is a research methodology that is used to examine visual attention and other cognitive processes in a variety of areas, including scene perception, visual search and language processing. Eye- tracking data inform researchers with regard to two basic components of eye movement behavior: (i) eye fixations (i.e. where and for how long a subject is looking) and (ii) saccades or eye movements (i.e. where the eyes move next).
