Description

This is an eye-tracking experiment to investigate whether visualizers and verbalizers present different eye-movement patterns in viewing documents with different arrangements of images and text. Combined with the questionnaire and interview approach, the current study explored the accuracy of using eye-tracking technology to identify visualizers and verbalizers, as well as possible factors contributing to different levels of accuracy.
