More About This Textbook

Overview

Successfully completing many forms of behaviour requires that humans look in the right place at the right time: This has generated a large volume of research aimed at understanding how the eyes are guided. Prominent in research over a number of years now has been the notion that visual salience (low-level conspicuity) is a crucial causal factor in determining where people look. However, there is now a critical mass of evidence, drawn from a range of experimental settings, that visual conspicuity is unlikely to play a prominent role in determining where we look under most viewing conditions.

This places us at a very interesting transition period in our understanding of eye guidance. The papers included in this special issue not only underline the limitations of the original visual salience approach, but also present a range of alternative levels of selection that have a role in guiding where people fixate in scenes. Emerging alternative models of eye guidance are presented, and these appear to offer complementary accounts and theoretical positions. A number of remaining challenges have yet to be addressed even in the latest models of eye guidance, and this special issue considers these challenges, which will feature prominently in future research. Importantly, this special issue brings together research from a variety of experimental settings, from static scene viewing in laboratories, to watching movies, to virtual reality, to free behaviour in the real world, in order to fully assess our current understanding of eye guidance in natural scenes. It is clear that a key challenge in the future of this area will be to understand eye guidance in the context of natural behaviour.
