Eye movements were recorded while competent readers of English and Chinese read in their respective languages. There were no important differences in oculometric patterns of fixation pause durations for Chinese and American readers, suggesting that cognitive aspects of reading are more important than perceptual ones in determining eye movement patterns and fixation pauses of competent readers. An analysis of undershoot saccades associated with return of the eyes from the end of one line to the beginning of the next line suggests that these occur more frequently during reading than during the performance of similar eye movements that are more perceptually determined, however, the amount of undershoot does not discriminate between readers of alphabetic and logographic texts.
在以英语和中文为母语的熟练读者阅读各自语言时，记录他们的眼动情况。中国读者和美国读者在注视停顿持续时间的眼动测量模式上没有显著差异，这表明在决定熟练读者的眼动模式和注视停顿时，阅读的认知方面比感知方面更重要。对与眼睛从一行末尾回到下一行开头相关的下冲扫视的分析表明，这些扫视在阅读过程中比在更多由感知决定的类似眼动过程中更频繁地发生，然而，下冲的幅度并不能区分字母文字文本和表意文字文本的读者。
