ABSTRACT

The primary goal of the talk is to show how we can use an eyetracker to conduct linguistic research. As a case study, I will report on a visual world study I conducted back in August-September 2023 at UP Diliman on reflexive processing. A secondary goal is to expose attendees to a different flavor of linguistics not typically done at UP, psycholinguistics.
