==== Constraint-based model ====
Constraint-based theories of language comprehension<ref>{{cite journal|last=MacDonald|first=M.

Through [[Statistical learning in language acquisition|statistical learning]],<ref>{{cite journal |last=Seidenberg |first=Mark S. |author2=J.L. McClelland |year=1989 |title=A distributed developmental model of word recognition and naming. |journal=Psychological Review |volume=96 |pages=523–568 |pmid=2798649|doi=10.1037/0033-295X.96.4.523 |issue=4 |citeseerx=10.1.1.127.3083 }}</ref> the frequencies and distribution of events in linguistic environments can be picked upon, which inform language comprehension. As such, language users are said to arrive at a particular interpretation over another during the comprehension of an ambiguous sentence by rapidly integrating these probabilistic constraints.

===Eye-movements===
[[Eye tracking]] has been used to study online language processing. This method has been influential in informing knowledge of reading.<ref>{{cite journal | author=Rayner K. | title=Eye movements in reading and information processing |journal=Psychological Bulletin | year=1978 | volume=85 |pages=618–660 | doi=10.1037/0033-2909.85.3.618 | pmid=353867 | issue=3| citeseerx=10.1.1.294.4262 }}</ref> Additionally, Tanenhaus et al. (1995)<ref>{{cite journal |author1=Tanenhaus M. K. |author2=Spivey-Knowlton M. J. |author3=Eberhard K. M. |author4=Sedivy J.

This area of research capitalizes on the linking hypothesis that eye movements are closely linked to the current focus of attention.
