Lexical processing during saccadic eye movements
Article Abstract:
A study was conducted to examine the claim that word recognition and identification processes are not performed during saccades. Saccades refer to rapid eye movements which occur about three or four times per second while reading or watching something. After three experiments with long and short saccades, it has been found out that the claim is not true. Saccades do not suppress lexical processing. It is therefore imperative for eye movement researchers to include saccades in their gaze duration studies.

Perceptual learning for speech is there a return to normal?
Article Abstract:
A study is conducted to know how perceptual systems dynamically adjust to reflect the speech one hear and what causes the representations to return to the pre-perceptual learning setting. The results revealed that phonemic representations are dynamic and flexible to interact with both higher (lexical) and lower-level (acoustic) information.

Time course of frequency effects in spoken-word recognition: evidence from eye movements
Article Abstract:
The effect of word frequency on spoken-word recognition has been examined through monitoring of eye movements in two experiments. The results suggest that word frequency effects occur in the earliest parts of the spoken-word recognition process.
