Eye-Tracking Workshop

Eye-tracking technology has been critical for understanding real-time language processing, since it offers a window into the attentional state of language comprehenders, letting researchers ask questions about how language comprehenders react to linguistic stimuli moment-by-moment.

This workshop, taught by Dr. Brian Dillon, will introduce to graduate students the use of eye movements for studying language processing. We will cover core results and theoretical perspectives on eye-tracking, focusing on the use of the visual world methodology. Participants will learn critical considerations for designing experiments, and will be given hands-on experience with critical software, tools, and data.

The workshop is designed for graduate students, post-doctoral scholars and faculty with background in linguistics or cognitive science.

Please note that the workshop will start with a short course as part of the CLA crash courses on June 20th.

Also, registration for the event is free but required and it will close when we reach capacity.
