ABSTRACTViewing natural scenes has been shown to produce fewer but longer eye fixations than viewing urban scenes, apattern often interpreted within Attention Restoration Theory (ART) as reflecting effortless attention and softfascination. However, the perceptual mechanisms underlying these differences remain unclear. This studyexamined whether gaze behavior can be explained by objective and subjective measures of visual […]

Purpose Social participation among wheelchair users depends heavily on mobility. While assistive navigation technologies like Google Maps have reshaped urban mobility, they often overlook the specific needs of wheelchair users. This study aimed to explore how wheelchair users interact with urban environments while using an assistive navigation technology and find gaps in route instructions, in […]

Abstract As e-commerce and urban deliveries spike, there is an increasing demand for curbside loading/unloading space. However, commercial vehicle drivers face numerous challenges while navigating dense urban road networks. These challenges can lead to conflicts with other road users, congestion, illegal parking, and parking time violations. While existing research often highlights pedestrian and bicyclist safety […]

Abstract: This study investigates the attentional and emotional impact of different image types in medical crowdfunding campaigns, and how these images impact donations. Building on signaling theory and evolutionary explanations for the drivers of altruism, we hypothesized that donors will be more likely to support campaigns with images that depict illness than campaigns with images […]

Abstract Carousel ads introduce a unique interactive element to in-feed social media advertising by prompting consumers to swipe sideways. Four studies offer novel insights into the “carousel effect” that results from the interactivity and multi-card structure of carousel ads. An exploratory investigation of how consumers perceive and experience carousel ads reveals four experiential themes: curiosity, […]

Abstract: Very short answer questions (VSAQs) have gained attention for their superior psychometric properties compared to multiple-choice questions (MCQs). While VSAQs require knowledge recall, MCQs primarily involve knowledge recognition. This difference in cognitive processes may lead to varying cognitive workloads, defined as the amount of mental processing in working memory. Previous studies have not demonstrated […]

Introduction Healthcare team performance directly impacts the quality and safety of medical care. However, measuring the performance of teams is challenging and requires methodologies to investigate different contributing elements. This study proposes an AI(artificial intelligence)-driven multimodal approach to visualising gaze (ie, joint visual attention) and speech in medical team performance and examines how these might differ […]

This paper presents a case study usability evaluation of a graphical user interface (GUI) used in the Virtual Terrain Image Generation System (VTIGS) developed by AMST Systemtechnik GmbH. The GUI is used by instructors to configure night vision training scenarios for pilots using Night Vision Goggles (NVG). However, many instructors are non-aviation professionals. This study […]

Gaze attention estimation is the task that aims to understand where each person is looking in each scene. In this study, we introduce a new annotated dataset that is derived from medical simulation training videos, capturing diverse and authentic clinical scenarios from a practical medical environment and annotated by the ground truth data from eye-tracking […]

Cities are experiencing accelerated growth in visitor numbers to the point of overcrowding, raising concerns about negative effects on both destinations and residents. Academic discourse on overtourism primarily addresses environmental damage, infrastructure overload, and resident dissatisfaction, often overlooking how tourists experience overcrowding. When examined, tourist experiences have predominantly been measured using subjective self-report tools such […]
