Current theories of language comprehension posit that readers and listeners routinely try to
predict the meaning but also the visual or sound form of upcoming words. Whereas most …

ABSTRACT M/EEG research using naturally spoken stories as stimuli has focused largely
on speech and not language processing. The temporal resolution of M/EEG is a two-edged …

A long tradition of research including classical rhetoric, esthetics and poetics theory,
formalism and structuralism, as well as current perspectives in (neuro) cognitive poetics has …

Combining EEG with eye-tracking is a promising approach to study neural correlates of
natural vision, but the resulting recordings are also heavily contaminated by activity of the …

Abstract Fixation-related potentials (FRPs), neural responses aligned to the end of
saccades, are a promising tool for studying the dynamics of attention and cognition under …

We used ERPs to investigate the pre-activation of form and meaning in language
comprehension. Participants read high-cloze sentence contexts (eg,“The student is going to …

Word features in parafoveal vision influence eye movements during reading. The question of
whether readers extract semantic information from parafoveal words was studied in 3 …

ERP averaging is an extraordinarily successful method, but can only be applied to a limited
range of experimental designs. We introduce the regression‐based rERP framework, which …

In spite of the reduced visual acuity, parafoveal information plays an important role in natural
reading. However, competing models on reading disagree on whether words are previewed …

Two very reliable influences on eye fixation durations in reading are word frequency, as
measured by corpus counts, and word predictability, as measured by cloze norming. Several …
