How Psychological Science Informs the Teaching of Reading
TL;DR: From different sources of evidence, two inescapable conclusions emerge: Mastering the alphabetic principle is essential to becoming proficient in the skill of reading, and methods that teach this principle directly are more effective than those that do not.

TL;DR: In this paper, a computer-based eye-movement controlled display system was developed for the study of perceptual processes in reading, which was used to identify the region from which skilled readers pick up various types of visual information during a fixation while reading.
