Parafoveal X-masks interfere with foveal word recognition: Evidence from fixation-related brain potentials.

Parafoveal X-masks interfere with foveal word recognition: Evidence from fixation-related brain potentials.

AbstractThe boundary paradigm, in combination with parafoveal masks, is the main technique for studying parafoveal preprocessing during reading. The rationale is that the masks (e.g., strings of X’s) prevent parafoveal preprocessing, but do not interfere with foveal processing. A recent study, howev...
