self-paced reading designer

This skill encodes expert knowledge for designing self-paced reading (SPR) experiments in psycholinguistics. SPR is the most widely used behavioral method for studying real-time sentence comprehension during reading (Jegerski, 2014). A competent programmer without psycholinguistics training will reliably make errors in region segmentation, spillover design, and comprehension question construction -- all of which i...

Self-paced reading appears deceptively simple: participants press a button to reveal successive words. But the scientific value of an SPR experiment depends entirely on decisions that require psycholinguistic training:
