“…In contrast, recording eye movements provides moment‐to‐moment reading time measures, which can be used to understand what influence the manipulated variable has on individuals' reading behaviors, for example whether any anticipatory processes are involved or whether readers struggle with comprehending certain words/sentences by making regressions or having longer reading times [Rayner, Chace, Slattery, & Ashby, 2006]. More recently, a few studies have applied online measures, such as eye‐tracking and event‐related brain potentials (ERPs), to investigate how readers keep track of temporal and emotional shifts in stories, and have demonstrated that readers are sensitive to mismatches between a character's expected and described emotional states [Carminati & Knoeferle, 2013, 2016; Komeda & Kusumi, 2006; Leuthold, Filik, Murphy, & Mackenzie, 2012; Munster, Carminati, & Knoeferle, 2014; Ralph‐Nearman & Filik, 2018; Rinck & Bower, 2000; Vega, 1996; Zwaan, 1996]. Moreover, some researchers have examined the online processes underlying sarcasm comprehension using eye‐tracking [e.g., Au‐Yeung, Kaakinen, Liversedge, & Benson, 2015; Deliens, Antoniou, Clin, Ostashchenko, & Kissine, 2018; Filik, Howman, Ralph‐Nearman, & Giora, 2018; Filik, Leuthold, Wallington, & Page, 2014; Filik & Moxey, 2010; Kaakinen, Olkoniemi, Kinnari, & Hyönä, 2014; Olkoniemi, Ranta, & Kaakinen, 2016; Olkoniemi, Johander, & Kaakinen, 2019; Olkoniemi, Strömberg, & Kaakinen, 2019; Țurcan & Filik, 2016, 2017].…”
