Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract In order to use eye-tracking to investigate grammatical representations and the commitments made by formal syntactic theories, researchers must have clear linking hypotheses between reading behavior, parsing operations and grammatical constructs. The ability to articulate linking hypotheses presupposes a basic understanding of reading and eye-tracking measures. To this end, we provide an overview of the psychology of reading and eye-tracking-while-reading method. We review findings that grammatical processing is reflected in the eye-tracking record, offer remarks on practical aspects of constructing eye-tracking experiments, and discuss issues related to aligning grammatical model with parsing models. We offer in-depth case-studies on the processing of A’-dependencies and reflexive anaphors, and discuss how their results reflect on grammatical questions.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
