Comparing Reinforcement Values of Facial Expressions: An Eye-Tracking Study

Published in The Psychological Record, 2019

Summary

This study compared the reinforcement values of facial expressions using eye-tracking measures. The study examined how different facial expressions functioned as visual stimuli by measuring participants’ looking behavior.

The study contributes to the Measuring line by using eye tracking to evaluate observable allocation of visual attention to facial expressions. It also connects to autism support and social interaction research by examining how social stimuli can be experimentally arranged and measured.

Research line

  • Measuring: eye-tracking measurement of visual attention to social stimuli
  • Facial Expressions: comparison of facial expressions as social stimuli
  • Autism Support: experimental assessment relevant to social attention and interaction
