Three broad categories of models of eye movement guidance in reading are described. According to one category, eye movements in reading are not under stimulus or cognitive control; the other two categories indicate that cognitive activities or stimulus characteristics are involved in eye guidance. In this study a number of descriptive analyses of eye movements in reading were carried out. These analyses dealt with fixation locations on letters within words of various lengths, conditional probabilities that a word will be fixed given that a prior word was or was not fixated, and average saccade length as a function of the length of the word to the right of the fixated word. The results of these analyses were supportive of models which suggest that determining where to look next while reading is made on a nonrandom basis.
本文描述了阅读中眼动引导的三大类模型。根据其中一类模型，阅读中的眼动不受刺激或认知控制；另外两类模型则表明认知活动或刺激特征参与了眼动引导。在本研究中，对阅读中的眼动进行了多项描述性分析。这些分析涉及不同长度单词内字母的注视位置、在前一个单词被注视或未被注视的情况下某个单词被注视的条件概率，以及作为注视单词右侧单词长度函数的平均扫视长度。这些分析结果支持了一些模型，这些模型表明阅读时决定下一步看哪里是基于非随机的基础做出的。
