  • An Eye Tracking Study on the Effects of Dark and Light Themes on User Performance and Workload
    Open AccessPeer-Reviewed25/05/2025University of St. Gallen
    The visual theme of a dashboard, whether light or dark, is a prominent design choice with potential implications for user experience. This research investigates the effect of visual theme on user performance and workload during decision-making tasks on dashboards. In a within-subjects experiment, we measured the effect of dark and light themes and task complexity […]

  • The Role of Empathy in Leadership Ethics: Examining Empathic Relational Leadership Practice through Video-Based Methods
    GatedPeer-Reviewed04/04/2025George Washington University + 2
    Using a relational leadership lens, this study aims to gain a deeper understanding of empathic conversations with a focus on leadership ethics. It adopts an entitative perspective in relational leadership and examines leadership conversations as a two-way influence relationship, highlighting their interdependencies and collective role in the co-construction of meaning. Data from facial expression software […]

  • Emotional contagion in dyadic online video conferences—empirical evidence based on self-report and facial expression data
    Open AccessPeer-Reviewed03/04/2025Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (LMU Munich)
    Introduction: Emotional contagion is an essential and prevalent emotional process in social interaction and comprises the transmission of emotions between two or more individuals. The vast majoriy of prior research explored the emotional contagion in face-to-face human interaction. The present study explored the degree to which emotional contagion occurs in dyadic online video conferences, using subjective […]

  • An Eye-Tracking Study on Text Comprehension While Listening to Music: Preliminary Results
    Open AccessPeer-Reviewed03/04/2025University of Thessaly
    The aim of the present study was to examine the effect of background music on text comprehension using eye-tracking technology. Ten Greek undergraduate students read four texts under the following four reading conditions: preferred music, non-preferred music, café noise, and in silence. Eye movements were tracked to assess visual patterns, while reading performance and attitudes […]

  • A Multisensor Dataset of South Asian Post-Graduate Students Working on Mental Rotation Tasks
    Open AccessPeer-Reviewed03/04/2025Indian Institute of Technology Bombay
    Spatial thinking, in general, and mental rotation, in particular, have seen sustained research attention due to such abilities playing a critical role in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) learning. The recent development of sensor-based approaches to identify, understand, and measure cognition and affect opens up new possibilities to study such topics. We collected galvanic […]

  • Assessing ECG Interpretation Expertise in Medical Practitioners Through Eye Movement Data and Neuromorphic Models
    Open AccessPeer-Reviewed15/01/2025University of Engineering and Technology (UET) + 4
    This study introduces an innovative method for assessing ECG interpretation abilities in medical professionals via eye-tracking data. We examine eye movement patterns from five separate groups of cardiology practitioners utilizing a combination of neuromorphic computing models, including Spiking Neural Networks (SNN), Spiking Convolutional Neural Networks (SCNN), Recurrent Spiking Neural Networks (RSNN), and Spiking Convolutional Long […]

  • Multimodal Analysis of Learning-Centered Emotions and Cognitive Processes in Open-Ended Learning Environments
    GatedPeer-Reviewed15/01/2025Indian Institute of Technology + 2
    Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) is a multifaceted process encompassing cognitive, affective, metacognitive, and motivational components. Understanding the interplay of these components, particularly emotions, is crucial for fostering effective learning behaviors. This study addresses the challenge of recognizing Learning-Centered Emotions (LCEs) in educational settings by reannotating the DAiSEE dataset (a dataset for learning-centric emotion with Indian students) […]

  • Do you remember? Consumer reactions to health-related information on snacks in repeated exposure
    Open AccessPeer-Reviewed11/01/2025Aarhus University + 2
    Health-related information on pre-packed food products can enhance purchase intention and healthy choices. However, retained positive influence of health-related information on product liking is necessary to help consumers make informed decisions about a healthy diet in the long term. According to information-reduction theory, consumers reduce the amount of information that is processed in repeated exposure. […]

  • Using Dynamic Structural Equation Models for Analysing Intensive Longitudinal Data from Online Measures in Education
    Open Access23/12/2024University of Stavanger + 3
    This chapter presents structural equation models (SEM) to analyse the dynamics of intensive longitudinal data nested in individuals obtained in online measures in educational research. We introduce multi-level SEM under the Bayesian statistical framework, including testing for stationarity, model and prior specification, model evaluation, and presentation of the findings. We then illustrate the approach with […]

  • Determinants of Choosing an Online Cosmetics Store: An Eye-Tracking Study on the Impact of Website Aesthetics on Purchase Decisions
    Open AccessPeer-Reviewed05/12/2024University of Szczecin
    Purpose: This study investigates key factors influencing consumer decisions when selecting online cosmetics stores, focusing on the impact of website aesthetics and user experience (UX). It examines how visual and functional website elements affect purchasing behavior through an eye-tracking study across three cosmetics websites, combining quantitative eyetracking data with qualitative user feedback.Design/Methodology/Approach: The research confirmed […]
