The discussion surrounding the consistency of reading styles across various texts and reading tasks persists, leaving unanswered questions about their role in shaping individual reading styles and their connection to cognitive styles. In the context of different manners of reading, Rayner defined so-called risky and conservative reading styles based on the patterns of eye movements while reading various texts, based e.g. on number of regressions or word skipping (Rayner et al., 2006; Rayner et al., 2009). However, it is still not yet fully evident how reading patterns and strategies are profiled and molded into reading styles, as well as how they relate to cognitive styles, which can be thought of as the way we think and solve problems, learn, etc. (Witkin et al., 1977). The main aim of this paper is to present a research study (see Lu et al., 2023) in which we decided to implement an eye-tracking method to validate Rayner's concept of reading styles on a specific reading task. For this purpose, rudimentary reading stimuli were created during which adult participants read several selected texts divided into three paragraphs. Cognitive styles were subsequently assessed using the Compound Figure Test (CFT) (a PC version of the original Navon test; see Navon et al., 1977). The results show that stability in eye movements was preserved during reading of the several text stimuli. No relationship between cognitive style and reading style was found for selected eye movement patterns during reading and cognitive style scores. In conclusion, these results may provide new insights into the way of handling and reading different textual materials.
