Area of Science:

  • Environmental psychology
  • Human-computer interaction
  • Cognitive science

Background:

  • Vision is crucial for environmental information acquisition.
  • Eye-tracking devices (ETDs) reveal how visual information processing relates to emotions and psychological states.
  • A need exists for standardized guidance on applying ETDs in environment-behavior studies.

Approach:

  • A comprehensive literature review was conducted on empirical studies utilizing ETDs.
  • Data extracted included research questions, designs, ETD types, variables, stimuli, and analysis methods.
  • Fifty relevant articles were identified and analyzed.

Key Points:

  • Research predominantly focused on urban, landscape, architectural, and interior spaces.
  • Experimental and quasi-experimental designs were most common.

  • Screen-based ETDs were prevalent, measuring gaze fixations, fixation durations, and scan paths.
  • Stimuli included images, videos, virtual reality, and real environments.

    • Conclusions:

    • Methodological guidance was developed based on the literature review.
    • This guidance assists in formulating research questions, selecting designs, and defining participant criteria.
    • It also aids in data collection, analysis, and interpretation for eye-tracking research in environment-behavior studies.
