自然阅读的脑成像研究及其与眼动技术结合

以往的研究者主要采用单词系列呈现的实验范式对词、句子和篇章等材料进行阅读脑成像研究。针对近年来使用自然阅读范式的功能磁共振(fMRI)研究进行分析,建议在该范式下使用脑-眼动同步记录的方式,并介绍了基于注视编码的fMRI数据分析原理。新的范式和技术提高了fMRI研究的生态效度,有利于对阅读中眼动加工的脑机制进行探索,是相关研究的新趋势。未来需要在自然阅读fMRI实验中结合实验设计及其他技术以克服时间分辨率低的问题,同时要注意探讨阅读和眼动脑区的关系。     

阅读知觉广度研究中掩蔽刺激干扰效应的眼动研究

本研究对汉语阅读知觉广度研究中掩蔽刺激的干扰效应进行了探讨。两个实验分别以大学生为被试,采用单因素实验设计,探测了汉语阅读眼动研究中移动窗口范式和中央凹掩蔽范式下四种掩蔽条件(星号掩蔽、繁体字掩蔽、相似汉字掩蔽和控制条件)的干扰作用。两个实验比较一致的支持了在两种范式呈现条件下星号掩蔽材料的干扰效应较小,而繁体字和相似汉字的干扰效应较大。     

阅读中的快速启动范式述评

快速启动范式（Sereno & Rayner, 1992）是一种基于呈现随眼动变化技术而设计的眼动范式,主要用于研究中央凹视野内字词识别的瞬时启动,通过精确控制启动条件和启动时窗,以考察词汇通达过程中词汇水平（如,词频、词长等）、亚词汇水平（如,语音、语义、字形等）信息的加工时序。本文从基本原理、设计基础、应用领域、注意事项等方面对快速启动范式进行了较为深入的解读和介绍,并结合已有的研究成果,指出了该范式在汉语阅读中的应用价值。     

初中二年级学生字词阅读知觉广度的眼动研究

采用眼动研究中经典的移动窗口技术范式探讨中学生字词阅读知觉广度。通过两个实验分别对17名初中二学生和12名初中二学生进行了汉语字、词阅读知觉广度的眼动研究。实验1结果表明,初中二年级学生字窗口条件下的阅读知觉广度为注视点左侧1个单字到右侧2个单字的范围;实验2结果表明,双字词窗口条件下的阅读知觉广度为注视点左侧1个双字词到右侧1个双字词的范围。本研究推论汉语阅读过程进行的是词单元加工,而不是单字。     

中文单字词句的阅读知觉广度*

通过考察中文单字词句的阅读知觉广度来探讨中文阅读的基本加工单元问题。实验采用“呈现随眼动变化”技术——移动窗口范式,记录了20名大学生阅读120个单字词句时的眼动行为,其中实验材料分5种窗口条件呈现。实验结果显示,单字词句的右侧阅读知觉广度为2个单字词,小于以往知觉广度的研究结果。中文阅读的基本加工单元可能是词。     

大小字号的文本对中文读者眼动模式和阅读知觉广度的影响

摘 要 研究以眼动仪为工具,采用移动窗口范式考察不同字号文本对读者阅读知觉广度和眼动模式的影响。实验结果发现,被试阅读大、小字号文本时的阅读知觉广度都是四个字。字号大小不影响读者的阅读知觉广度,但是影响读者的眼动模式。具体表现为：被试阅读小号字文本的平均注视时间、总注视时间比大号字文本长,平均眼跳距离更短,相对眼跳距离（单位为字的个数）更长,注视次数更多。     

真实场景搜索中的眼动返回抑制

眼动返回抑制是指眼睛返回至先前注视过的位置(客体)时眼跳潜伏期长、可能性低的一种抑制现象。近年来, 研究者对真实场景搜索中的眼动返回抑制进行了深入的研究。本文介绍了相关研究的经典实验范式、主要发现及其理论解释, 探讨了眼动返回抑制的容量、眼动返回抑制是否具有任务特异性、场景搜索中是否存在眼动返回促进以及眼动返回抑制的神经基础等问题, 并指出未来该领域研究的方向和途径。     

空格在文本阅读中的作用

本文总结空格在文本阅读中作用的相关研究, 主要包括以下内容: (1)删除或替代有空格文本中的空格, 对阅读产生的干扰作用; (2)在无空格的文本中插入空格, 对阅读产生一定的促进作用, 空格在汉语阅读中的作用受被试阅读经验、阅读方式和空格大小等因素影响; (3)被试母语和第二语言呈现方式的一致性会影响空格在第二语言阅读中的作用; (4)今后应结合眼动控制理论, 从注视点落点位置和熟悉性等方面开展研究。     

眼动技术在阅读研究中的应用

眼动技术在英文阅读研究中被广泛的应用,可以探测阅读活动中的即时加工过程。在中文阅读研究中,眼动技术的应用还刚刚起步。文章讨论了眼动技术在阅读研究中的一些基本问题,如眼脑距离问题、知觉广度问题、阅读研究中眼动分析指标的选择问题等,希望能对没有进行过眼动基础问题研究的中文阅读研究有一定启发。

Eye movements and attention in reading,scene perception,and visual search

Eye movements are now widely used to investigate cognitive processes during reading, scene perception, and visual search. In this article, research on the following topics is reviewed with respect to reading: (a) the perceptual span (or span of effective vision), (b) preview benefit, (c) eye movement control, and (d) models of eye movements. Related issues with respect to eye movements during scene perception and visual search are also reviewed. It is argued that research on eye movements during reading has been somewhat advanced over research on eye movements in scene perception and visual search and that some of the paradigms developed to study reading should be more widely adopted in the study of scene perception and visual search. Research dealing with “real-world” tasks and research utilizing the visual-world paradigm are also briefly discussed.     

The gaze-contingent moving window in reading: Development and review

The development of the gaze-contingent moving window paradigm (McConkie & Rayner, 1975, 1976) is discussed and the results of the earliest research are reviewed. The original work suggested that the region from which readers can obtain useful information during an eye fixation in reading, or the perceptual span, was asymmetric around the fixation point, and extended from 3–4 letter spaces to the left of fixation to about 14–15 letter spaces to the right of fixation. Subsequent research which substantiated these findings is discussed. Then more recent research using the moving window paradigm to investigate the following topics (1) effects of reading speed, (2) effects of reading skill, (3) effects of the writing system, (4) effects due to age, (5) effects related to deafness, and (5) effects related to schizophrenia is discussed. Finally, some extensions of gaze-contingent paradigms to areas other than reading are discussed.     

平滑追随眼动的神经机制综述

平滑追随眼动作为视觉引导的眼动行为之一,是指为保障对运动目标的精细觉察,眼睛追随慢速运动的目标以使其处于中央凹位置时眼球的运动情况。本文简要归纳介绍了平滑追随眼动的实验范式、测量指标和影响因素,在此基础上重点详述了平滑追随眼动的皮质-脑桥-小脑神经通路,其中皮质区的额眼区、辅眼区、颞中区、内侧上颞区及侧顶区在平滑追随眼动的产生中具有不同作用;而脑桥核和脑桥被盖网状核作为中继站负责将来自顶枕区和额叶区信号传递到小脑中参与眼动的区域;小脑的绒球和副绒球及蚓体负责处理平滑追随的眼动信号,并协调前庭神经反射。对平滑追随眼动的理解不仅可以帮助我们区分眼动的正常与否,发挥其临床诊断和药理学评估的作用,而且有助于确定患者大脑器质性病变或损伤的程度,同时为进一步的实验认知研究和验证提供理论基础。     

EVENT-RELATED BRAIN POTENTIALS, EYE MOVEMENTS, AND READING

Abstract— This article compares studies that use event-related brain potential (ERP) and eye movement data to examine changes in reading behavior when a text is read twice. Although the types of information provided by these methodologies are different, both indicate that rereading a text facilitates many aspects of processing. ERPs provide a method for measuring comprehension and memory processes separately, while eye movements provide a continuous record of performance and allow changes in reading behavior to be localized to specific words. The results from these studies are compatible. However, converging evidence is not always found when different paradigms are contrasted, and diverging results can provide important information. To facilitate comparison across experiments, we suggest using a common set of materials for both paradigms. We conclude that comparing the results of research based on more than one paradigm provides a more complete understanding of the processes involved in reading.     

A review on eye movement studies in childhood and adolescent psychiatry

The neural substrates of eye movement measures are largely known. Therefore, measurement of eye movements in psychiatric disorders may provide insight into the underlying neuropathology of these disorders. Visually guided saccades, antisaccades, memory guided saccades, and smooth pursuit eye movements will be reviewed in various childhood psychiatric disorders. The four aims of this review are (1) to give a thorough overview of eye movement studies in a wide array of psychiatric disorders occurring during childhood and adolescence (attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, oppositional deviant disorder and conduct disorder, autism spectrum disorders, reading disorder, childhood-onset schizophrenia, Tourette’s syndrome, obsessive compulsive disorder, and anxiety and depression), (2) to discuss the specificity and overlap of eye movement findings across disorders and paradigms, (3) to discuss the developmental aspects of eye movement abnormalities in childhood and adolescence psychiatric disorders, and (4) to present suggestions for future research. In order to make this review of interest to a broad audience, attention will be given to the clinical manifestation of the disorders and the theoretical background of the eye movement paradigms.

基于伪装原理研究无意识视觉运动加工的方法

研究提出一种新的连续闪烁抑制(CFS)范式, 利用透明度混合(alpha blending)原理, 使目标刺激的颜色与相应位置的掩蔽刺激的颜色时刻保持一致。研究随机招募了8名被试, 向其优势眼呈现Mondrian图像序列, 非优势眼呈现固定速率运动的多个正方形。结果表明目标为多运动点动态刺激时, 该范式依然具备掩蔽作用, 且当目标刺激与相应位置的掩蔽刺激的颜色完全一致时, 掩蔽效果最好, 证明这种新范式比传统CFS范式对动态刺激的掩蔽作用更好。相比以往修改CFS掩蔽刺激的思路, 该范式为研究无意识视觉运动加工提供了新方法, 且适用性更广。     

个体认识论的研究现状与展望
