Using Experts' Eye Movements to Influence Scanning Behaviour in Novice Drivers

Using Experts' Eye Movements to Influence Scanning Behaviour in Novice Drivers.

In many areas, experts often exhibit specialised eye movement behaviour which allows for more efficient task execution than novices. In some areas (e.g. Radiology), showing this pattern of eye movement behaviour to novices can help cue overt visual attention to more relevant areas; which allows for more efficient task completion. We present a study which investigated the effects of eye movement...

Eye Movements of Younger and Older Drivers

This 2-part study focuses on eye movements to explain driving-related visual performance in younger and older persons. In the first task, participants' eye movements were monitored as they viewed a traffic scene image with a numeric overlay and visually located the numbers in their sequential order. The results showed that older participants had significantly longer search episodes than younger...

Using Eye Movements to Elucidate Human Behavior

The influence of large scanning eye movements on stereoscopic slant estimation of large surfaces

The results of several experiments demonstrate that the estimated magnitude of perceived slant of large stereoscopic surfaces increases with the duration of the presentation. In these experiments, subjects were free to make eye movements. A possible explanation for the increase is that the visual system needs to scan the stimulus with eye movements (which take time) before it can make a reliabl...

The influence of attending to multiple locations on eye movements

The present paper reports results of a dual task study in which two locations were endogenously cued as possible target locations, while only one eye movement had to be executed. During the cue period, letters were briefly presented at the saccade goals and at no-saccade goals. Results show that performance was better for letters presented at any of the saccade goals than for letters presented ...
