This book explores the construct of reading comprehension by means of two main test methods.
Research methods like the think aloud protocol and eye tracking are employed to tap into
test-takers¿ cognitive processes while engaged in input text meaning building and in test
tasks. The book is the first systematic attempt to explore test-takers¿ cognitive processes
through the control of test methods and presents findings in visualized form including
processing route maps and eye fixation heat maps. It offers readers essential support with
¿digging intö and analyzing data that has to date remained difficult to access.
