For moving-image stories, how does a viewer's running understanding of the plot relate to what they look at and to where they sense a new event beginning?

SPECT (Loschky, Larson, Smith & Magliano) is a framework with front-end processes (single-fixation attention and information extraction) and back-end processes (building a current event model, mapping coherent changes, shifting when mapping fails). Its authors' own studies, summarised in the paper, found in picture stories that a missing bridging image lengthened viewing time, and in an edited film clip (Jaws, N=98 think-aloud) that prior context changed whether viewers drew the predictive inference while gaze stayed strongly synchronised across conditions. The theory paper itself is a framework plus the authors' summary of their programme, not a single measured result. Curator qualifications: All 8 excerpts present. Correction: the summary's '(Jaws, N=98 think-aloud)' should name the film as Moonraker (Broccoli & Gilbert, 1979; S7 Figure 8 caption): S8 is titled 'What Would Jaws Do? The Tyranny of Film and the Relationship between Gaze and Higher-Level Narrative Film Comprehension', and 'Jaws' is 'Bond’s nemesis'; viewers watched 'a 12-second James Bond movie clip', and the Context condition 'also saw the preceding 2.5 minutes'. F3 already says Moonraker.
