Spoken language-mediated anticipatory eye-movements are modulated by reading ability - Evidence from Indian low and high literates by Ramesh K. Mishra, Niharika Singh, Aparna Pandey, Falk Huettig

“…We investigated whether levels of reading ability attained through formal literacy are related to anticipatory language-mediated eye movements. Indian low and high literates listened to simple spoken sentences containing a target word (e.g., "door") while at the same time looking at a visual display of four objects (a target, i.e. the door, and three distractors). …”
