ABSTRACT
This chapter provides a practical, accessible guide to implementing the looking-while-listening (LWL) procedure in second language research, and concludes with an overview of research using LWL to investigate real-time processing in native and non-native speakers. The procedure capitalizes on the basic human perceptual capacities of (1) using eyes to look, and (2) using ears to listen. Its simple name reflects its use of basic perceptual abilities and its relatively simple implementation.
