Research Interest

Cognitive and developmental reading research; visual perception, attention and eye movement control; acquired and developmental reading disabilities; cognitive neuropsychology with a focus on visual and oculomotor functions; human factors and internet usability.


Current Research

Research on normal reading: Inter- and intraindividual variability, sequential vs. parallel word processing, reading in different languages and writing systems. Glenmore, a theory and model of information processing and eye movement control in reading.

Neuropsychology and Neurolinguistics: Effects of acute alcohol intoxication and chronic alcohol consumption, visual processing and executive functions in children and adults with ADHD, word recognition and reading in patients with aphasia.

Developmental reading research: reading behavior in beginning readers and in children with reading disabilities, predictors of learning to read, reading in older adults.

Human factors and training: Eye movements in human-computer interfaces, computerized training of reading skills, multitasking in elderly adults.
