Abstract
In this chapter, we will discuss research conducted over the past 40 years dealing with the eye movements during reading of skilled readers as compared to poor readers, as well as beginning and older readers. We will discuss issues related to the perceptual span (or area of effective vision), preview benefit, basic characteristics of eye movements, and eye movement control across the different groups – asking what we can infer about each group’s reading behavior from their eye movements. We will then discuss attempts to model different stages of reading development over the lifespan. Finally, we will discuss the implications that this research has for teaching children to read.
