Repeating words can facilitate word processing at the early stage during sentence reading. The current study aimed to investigate whether readers can extract word class information from parafoveal words using repeating words that appeared in the same sentences prior to the target words as preview words. The results showed that: 1) fixation durations of the target word were shorter and the fixation probabilities were lower in repeated preview than in non-repeated preview; 2) the main effect of word class was not reliable; 3) there was no significant difference in the consistency of word classes between repeated and non-repeated previews. The findings suggest that readers do not obtain word class information of parafoveal words when repeating words are used as previews. The results support the E-Z reader model.
