Eye Movements and Reading in Dyslexic Readers
06 April 2025
This is an eye-tracking study looking at how adults with dyslexia process natural texts. We would like to particularly investigate additional processing load and eye-movement pattern that readers have when encountering ambiguous words in text, with this study, the relationship between reading time, eye-movement, and ambiguity could be studied.

- 18-40 years old
- Native-level English proficiency (or have 10+ years English speaking experience)
