New preprint on spatial bias in visual attention and how to counter it. In a two-alternative forced choice task, we show a 300% increase in statistical power when left-bias is neutralized. More is possible. Implications for visual world paradigm and perhaps the maze task.

This started as a student project in our eye-tracking course. Amazing to see what cool things students will put together if you let them.

From PsyPost.org: New study suggests memory games with emotional cues can reduce anxiety-driven focus: Using eye-tracking technology, scientists found that a month of specific mental training reduced the tendency of anxious individuals to instantly lock onto threatening faces, targeting the subconscious roots of social fear. http://dlvr.it/TQKnFx News: bit.ly/3LA2jdQ #MentalHealth #AnxietyRelief #MemoryGames #EmotionalIntelligence #EyeTracking

In our latest study, we looked at how people look at sausages!
When shopping, people see different visual cues that influence their food choices. In addition, concerns about the use of nitrites and the overall environmental impact of animal breeding are changing the European sausage market.
The aim of this study was to assess differences in the visual attention of participants (n = 66) when looking at three types of sausages (traditional, nitrite-free, and plant-based) in both a blinded and informed condition. In the blinded condition, participants only saw the sausages, but in the informed condition, the sausages were accompanied by an informational message about the health and environmental benefits and health risks of the product. The study was conducted in Ireland and Finland using eye-tracking glasses and a food choice task.
Differences in the focus of visual attention were observed between countries. Irish participants looked at different products in turn, returning to the sausages they had already looked at, while Finnish participants tended to focus on each product (or text) for longer periods without returning to it again. In both countries, in the blinded condition, most participants chose the conventional product, with the plant-based alternative coming in second.
In the information-based condition, the conventional sausage remained the most popular in Ireland, while in Finland the plant-based alternative became the most popular. In Ireland, the differences were small in terms of visual attention, although the product information text for the nitrite-free sausage was viewed the longest. On the other hand, in the blinded condition, the plant-based alternative was viewed the longest on the first viewing, and more reinspections were made. An interesting finding was that the longer the product was viewed, the more likely it was to be chosen.
Our results highlight the need for culturally specific approaches. In promoting healthier and more sustainable food choices, the emphasis is on visual attention and the provision of information.
We are pleased to announce that BIDS Extension Proposal 20 - Eye Tracking is open for community review!

# Hospiz-Projekt geht endlich weiter
Wir haben endlich den technischen Dienstleister des Hospizes ranbekommen, um uns ans Personalrufsystem anzuschlieĂźen. Er meinte, das wird nicht ganz so einfach sein. Ist wohl kein einfaches DECT-System. (Vielleicht doch mit Servos den Knopf drĂĽcken?)
# Tutorial fĂĽr Optikey
Wir bereiten gerade das erste groĂźe Tutorial vor: Eine Optikey-EinfĂĽhrung, in Video- und Textform.
... small line-contained changes went completely unnoticed by readers—even though they were obvious to bystanders.
Our research demonstrates how invisible adaptations during natural reading rhythms could enable more seamless and personalized reading assistance.

Eben die Leute von Pupil-Labs getroffen bei der ECVP2025 - Eine Konferenz fĂĽr visuelle Wahrnehmung.
Gelernt:
- In Pupil Core kann man wohl die Kamera feineinstellen fĂĽr besseres Tracking, muss aber die Einstellungen gezielt aktivieren. (Camera Intrinsics)
- Die Neon-Brillen haben kaum noch was mit dem "Core"-Projekt auf GitHub zutun. Viel besseres Tracking. Leider Closed-Source.

study on user #comments and their effect on journalistic #quality perception here:
https://doi.org/10.5771/2192-4007-2025-3-339
We find that (1) high-quality articles are more likely to captivate readers’ interest and maintain their attention throughout the reading process than low-quality ones, (2) positive reader comments affect the perception of specific journalistic quality dimensions (e.g., transparency and diversity).

Heute haben wir unser erstes Hospiz besucht und die Idee vorgestellt: Mit simplen Augengesten einen Personalruf auslösen.
Wir werden uns die Woche mit dem Technikdienstleister außeinandersetzen, damit wir verstehen, wie die Knöpfe an den Betten mit dem Personalrufsystem angebunden sind.

Wie unterscheiden sich Lehramtsstudierende und erfahrene Lehrkräfte im Erkennen von Unterrichtsstörungen? Ann-Sophie Grub, Antje Biermann und Roland Brünken analysieren Eye-Tracking-Studien zur professionellen Wahrnehmung von Klassenführung – mit Fokus auf „Noticing“ und „Reasoning“.
