Abstract
The entire surface phrase structure hierarchy of sentences influences visual scanning patterns in reading familiar material. A general eye-fixation rule predicts the pattern of adults' eye-fixations in a study of reading predictable sentences: "fixate on the first half of phrase structure constituents." This rule applies cumulatively at all levels of the surface phrase structure.
