Whether this principle applies to the parafoveal semantic processing ofmultiple words remains, however, controversial. This study therefore aimed at testing theimpact of the amount of cognitive resources available on the parafoveal semantic processingof words, by manipulating the foveal and task-related cognitive loads. Participants searchedfor words in displays of three semantically related or unrelated words, one of which waspresented in the center of the screen and two within the parafovea. The nature of the task andthe characteristics of the centered word were manipulated to vary respectively the loadassociated to the task and to the foveal load. Analyses revealed more first saccades toward theparafoveal semantic distractors when both loads were low. These results indicate that fastparafoveal semantic word processing is constrained by the availability of cognitive resources.
