There is a growing interest in experiments that combine eye movement and fixation-related potential measures. In this talk, I will consider the potential of using this experimental approach to examine brain activity under natural experimental conditions and the challenges that this brings. I will then discuss some of my co-registration studies to show the theoretical contributions of this type of data, in particular to gain insights into the nature and fine grain time-course of cognitive processes. Although most of the examples I will discuss will be in the field of reading, examining both foveal and parafoveal processing in young and older skilled readers, I will also present other applications of the method. The examples will demonstrate the importance of recording brain activity when information is presented more naturally than in traditional EEG/ERP tasks.
