话题兴趣与文本阅读眼动特征的研究

Topic Interest and Eye Movements in Text Reading

以大学生为被试,用ASL504型眼动仪,探讨话题兴趣对文本阅读过程眼动特征和文本阅读理解的影响。结果表明:(1)话题兴趣促进深层理解,而不能促进表层理解。(2)话题兴趣主要与阅读时间和注视点数相关联,而与阅读效率无关。(3)文本阅读过程中,阅读时间、注视点数两项眼动指标存在显著的性别差异。

The experiment was designed to explore the effects of topic interest on eye movements in text reading and reading comprehension. The results showed that: 1) topic interest significantly improved deep comprehension but not the surface comprehension. 2) topic interest is mainly related with reading time and fixations but less related with the reading efficiency. 3) significant gender difference was found in terms of reading time and fixations.
