Area of Science:

Cognitive Psychology
Computational Linguistics
Psycholinguistics

Background:

Accurate computational models of sentence comprehension require high-quality empirical data.
Existing datasets may not fully capture the nuances of natural language reading.

Purpose of the Study:

To create a gold-standard dataset for evaluating computational psycholinguistic models.
To provide detailed reading times and eye-tracking data for English narrative sentences.

Main Methods:

Collected word-by-word self-paced reading times.
Acquired eye-tracking data during sentence comprehension.
Utilized narrative English sentences as stimuli.
Described stimuli selection and data collection procedures.

Main Results:

Made available a comprehensive dataset of reading times and eye-tracking metrics.
Presented descriptive statistics of the collected data.
Compared different sets of reading times.

Conclusions:

The released dataset offers a robust benchmark for computational models.
This resource facilitates advancements in understanding sentence comprehension mechanisms.
