Researchers have developed a new method to assess language proficiency by analyzing eye movements during naturalistic reading of English passages. This approach, building on prior work, extends from single sentences to contextualized reading and incorporates new proficiency measures and prediction models. The study found that eye movement analysis is effective but can be biased by the reader's native language, prompting the development of a debiasing method. Results indicate that eye movement based scores are more reliable than traditional language proficiency tests. AI
IMPACT This research could lead to more reliable and less biased language assessment tools, potentially impacting educational technology and AI-driven language learning platforms.
