Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study examined whether word identification during L2 reading is serial (only one word is processed at a time) or parallel (multiple words are processed at a time) in nature with a focus on eye movements and parafoveal processing during reading. The results of a series of eye-tracking experiments revealed that 1) L2 readers do make use of parafoveal information during reading, although the amount of attention allocated to parafoveal processing during L2 reading is less than that during L1 reading, and 2) based on corpus-based analyses of eye movement data, lexical parafoveal-on-foveal effects were identified not only among L1 but also among L2 readers, suggesting that parallel processing may be possible in word identification during L2 reading.
