Abstract
This paper presents simulations of eye movements during reading, lexical decision, and naming using Über-Reader, a new computational model that aims to provide a complete account of the perceptual, cognitive, and motor processes involved in reading. The present simulations focused on Über-Reader’s word-identification module—an implemen-tation of the Multiple-Trace Memory model (Ans et al., 1998) based on the theoretical assumptions of the MI-NERVA 2 model of episodic memory (Hintzman, 1984)—with a vocabulary comprising the full corpus of the Eng-lish Lexicon Project (Balota et al., 2007). The model’s lex-icon was probed with words and one-letter-different non-words from the Schilling et al. (1998) corpus, and outputs of the model were scored to evaluate performance against the empirical data. The outcomes of these simulations will inform further development of Über-Reader by providing the foundation for our ultimate goal of simulating reading, in its entirety.
