Mouse Tracking for Reading
A browser-based tool for collecting word-by-word reading measures
2025
Abstract
We deployed and maintain a Mouse Tracking for Reading (MoTR) experiment on the CRC server infrastructure. The application uses separate domains for the browser-based experimental frontend and the Magpie backend, enabling the collection and management of word-by-word reading measures derived from participants' mouse movements.
