Typical research designs include sentence interpretation tasks and
eye tracking experimentation.
Book 2

Eye-tracking
Eye-tracking research involves having participants read sentences or
text on a computer screen while tiny cameras track eye-pupil
movements via a very small infrared light directed at their
pupils. As people read, they unconsciously skip words and parts
of words, regress to some words, and so on, on a millisecond-
by-millisecond basis (see Keating, 2013, for an overview of eye-
tracking research in L2).
