Dr Shane Rogers testing the Tobii Pro Glasses 2.
This project aims to use cutting-edge mobile eye tracking technology (Tobii Pro Glasses 2) and behavioural coding software (Mangold INTERACT) to examine personal eye gaze patterns during face-to-face conversation. Initial research has found evidence to suggest that people have their own idiosyncratic eye pattern determined by the facial locations that people look at, and the speed of fixations (Rogers, Speelman, Guidetti and Longmuir, 2018). An individual’s gaze pattern will slightly change according to who they are talking to, and what they are talking about. However, the initial study suggests that situational factors impact gaze patterns less than an individual’s dispositional gaze habits. This results in the gaze patterns of individuals to remain highly consistent across different conversations with different individuals. Future studies will examine what consequences an individual’s gaze pattern might have for general cognitive and social functioning.
