<b>Auditory Impacts on Subtitle Reading and Comprehension</b>

The data comprises eye-tracking measures and comprehension quiz results from novice learners exposed to different audio and subtitle conditions. The 2x3 within-subjects design includes three audio conditions (native English audio, foreign Spanish or Arabic audio, and no audio) and two subtitle languages (Spanish and Arabic). Global eye-tracking analyses reveal overall subtitle reading patterns, while local analyses focus on the processing of specific linguistic units. Comprehension quizzes assess learning outcomes after viewing the subtitled videos. The data shows that the absence of audio leads to increased fixation durations, indicating greater attentional demand. Spanish subtitles result in higher fixation counts and prolonged reading times compared to Arabic, reflecting deeper cognitive processing.

本数据集涵盖了处于不同音画条件下的新手学习者的眼动追踪(eye-tracking)指标与理解测验结果。本研究采用2×3被试内设计(within-subjects design)，包含三类音频条件（母语英语音频、外语西班牙语或阿拉伯语音频，以及无音频）与两类字幕语言（西班牙语与阿拉伯语）。全局眼动追踪分析可揭示字幕的整体阅读模式，而局部分析则聚焦于特定语言单元的认知加工过程。理解测验用于评估观看带字幕视频后的学习成效。数据集结果表明，无音频条件会延长注视时长，提示注意力负荷更高；相较于阿拉伯语字幕，西班牙语字幕的注视次数更多、阅读时长更长，反映出更深层次的认知加工。
