The function of diagram with numbered arrows and text in helping readers construct kinematic representations: Evidenced from eye movements and reading tests
作者：
Highlights：
• Diagrams with numbed arrows help readers construct simple kinematic representations.
• Words on a diagram are helpful for constructing a complicated kinematic mental representation.
• Diagrams without numbered arrows can cause readers to construct incorrect kinematic representations.
• Kinematic information conveyed via diagrams with numbered arrows is independent of that via text.
• Eye-movement indicators provide evidence of the effect of number arrow diagram on text reading.
