Summary/Abstract: This chapter examines the application of self-paced reading (SPR) tests using PsychoPy software in linguistic research, highlighting the method's ability to provide precise measurements of the cognitive processes involved in language comprehension. It reviews existing studies utilizing PsychoPy to investigate phenomena such as syntactic ambiguity resolution and discourse processing. Furthermore, the chapter proposes a methodological framework for conducting SPR experiments, offering specific guidelines for task design, stimulus presentation, and data analysis. By evaluating the advantages and limitations of this approach, this work aims to contribute to the methodological toolkit of linguists and researchers interested in real-time language processing.
