| Abstract | This study aims to investigate the reading processing of professional revisers, comparing their eye movement with subjects who do not work professionally in revision (non-revisers). In the reading and error detection task proposed and performed by 14 revisers and 14 non-revisers, the participants had to read and edit short journalistic texts displayed on a computer, by clicking on the errors and/or inadequacies they found using the mouse. There were two types of errors: a) missing preposition and b) incoherence generated by an incorrect nominal anaphora. In the statistical analysis, when normality was ensured, mixed models were carried out; otherwise, the analysis was carried out by means of non-parametric tests. Considering the eye movement analysis, the general perspective indicates that revisers presented the highest values, meaning they were slower in reading than non-revisers, which occurred concerning the measures of the text, sentence, and local levels. This research contributes to a characterization of reading processes involved in the revision of texts by professional revisers. |
