FAQ: *How can I reparse my data with different event parsing parameters?

[SR-SUPPORT]

If you need to re-classify fixations and saccades based on different criteria, you can reparse your eye movement data in Data Viewer. This can be done automatically for entire trials or groups, or manually for individual events.

Method 1: Automatic Reparsing
To automatically reparse data for a trial, a participant, or even the entire session:

• In the Inspector window, right-click on the trial or grouping level (e.g., Participant or Session) you want to reparse.
  
• Select Reparse Eye Events from the context menu.
  

his action applies the settings currently configured in Inspector > Preferences > Output / Analysis > Event Reparsing. Here, you can toggle between EyeLink's Standard or High Sensitivity parsers, or define your own custom thresholds.. For more details, please see Section 5.1 of the Data Viewer User Manual on Event Parsing.

   

Method 2: Manual Event Editing
For fine-grained control, you can manually reclassify individual events (e.g., changing a fixation to a saccade or adjusting start/end times). This is performed in the Temporal Graph view using the Add / Edit Event Mode.
