Afin d'étudier les processus de lecture des apprenants de langue japonaise, nous avons mené une expérience pour enregistrer les mouvements oculaires pendant la lecture de textes japonais à l'aide d'un système de suivi oculaire. Nous avons montré que les locuteurs natifs japonais utilisent fréquemment des « mouvements oculaires sautants vers l'avant et vers l'arrière » [13] [14]. Dans cet article, nous avons analysé plus en détail les mêmes données de suivi oculaire. Notre objectif est d'examiner si les apprenants japonais fixent leurs mouvements oculaires aux limites des unités linguistiques telles que des mots, des phrases ou des propositions lorsqu'ils commencent ou terminent le « saut en arrière ». Nous considérons les frontières linguistiques conventionnelles ainsi que les frontières définies empiriquement sur la base de l'entropie du N-modèle gramme. Un autre objectif est d'examiner la relation entre l'entropie du N-gram modèle et la profondeur des structures syntaxiques des phrases. Notre analyse montre que (1) les apprenants japonais fixent souvent leurs yeux sur les frontières linguistiques, (2) la moyenne de l'entropie est la plus grande à la cinquième profondeur des structures syntaxiques.

Abstract: In order to investigate reading processes of Japanese language learners, we have conducted an experiment to record eye movements during Japanese text reading using an eye-tracking system. We showed that Japanese native speakers use "forward and backward jumping eye movements" frequently [13] [14]. In this paper, we analyzed further the same eye tracking data. Our goal is to examine whether Japanese learners fix their eye movements at boundaries of linguistic units such as words, phrases or clauses when they start or end "backward jumping". We consider conventional linguistic boundaries as well as boundaries empirically defined based on the entropy of the N-gram model. Another goal is to examine the relation between the entropy of the N-gram model and the depth of syntactic structures of sentences. Our analysis shows that (1) Japanese learners often fix their eyes at linguistic boundaries, (2) the average of the entropy is the greatest at the fifth depth of syntactic structures.
