Description
Zohre Soleymani Tekbudak and three co-authors present a 2024 corpus of eye movements recorded while people read Persian sentences. Reading research has focused on Latin script languages read left to right. Persian runs right to left and has its own script features, yet data on how its readers move their eyes were missing.
The corpus records those movements so researchers can test how word traits shape gaze during reading. It also allows study of how nearby words affect each other as the eyes move across a sentence. The authors frame the resource as a step toward broader reading science. It invites work across languages, scripts, and reading directions rather than one narrow tradition.
