In 5 experiments, participants read text that was briefly replaced by a transient image for 33 ms at random intervals. A decrease in saccadic frequency, referred to as saccadic inhibition, occurred as early as 60-70 ms following the onset of abrupt changes in visual input. It was demonstrated that the saccadic inhibition was influenced by the saliency of the visual event (Experiment 3) and was not produced in response to abrupt but irrelevant auditory stimuli (Experiment 1). Display changes restricted to an area either inside or outside the perceptual span required for normal reading produced strong saccadic inhibition (Experiment 2). Finally, Experiments 4 and 5 demonstrated higher level cognitive or attentional modulation of the saccadic inhibition effect.
在5个实验中，参与者阅读的文本会在随机间隔被一张短暂的图像替换33毫秒。视觉输入突然变化开始后，早在60 - 70毫秒就出现了眼跳频率下降，即眼跳抑制。结果表明，眼跳抑制受视觉事件显著性的影响（实验3），且不是由突然但不相关的听觉刺激产生的（实验1）。局限于正常阅读所需感知跨度内或外区域的显示变化会产生强烈的眼跳抑制（实验2）。最后，实验4和实验5证明了眼跳抑制效应存在更高层次的认知或注意力调节。
