Viewing Eye Movements During Reading through the Lens of Chaos Theory: How Reading Is Like the Weather
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Paulson, Eric J. – Reading Research Quarterly, 2005
This theoretical article examines reading processes using chaos theory as an analogy. Three principles of chaos theory are identified and discussed, then related to reading processes as revealed through eye movement research. Used as an analogy, the chaos theory principle of sensitive dependence contributes to understanding the difficulty in…
