Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q2 i? Analyzing saccade directions recognized novel, manga, magazine, newspaper, and textbook reading material at 99 percent user-dependent and 74 percent user-independent accuracy. → Kai Kunze 2013

q2 · i? · design · r2
Study in which eight users wearing the iView X eye tracker in five different environments read five types of Japanese reading material (novel, manga, magazine, newspaper, textbook), about 10 minutes each. The article reports a "99 percent user-dependent and 74 percent user-independent recognition rate"; no effect size is printed.
"This approach achieved a 99 percent user-dependent and 74 percent user-independent recognition rate over a window size of about 1 minute of gaze data."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- The Wordometer eye-tracking app estimates the number of words a person reads with an average error rate of 6.5 percent
- Neither self-report nor eye tracking can reliably distinguish strategic from habituated behavior in empirical practice
