Description
Spatial intelligence is the ability to conceptualize and
comprehend complicated visual scenes. Previous
studies have shown that scanning patterns change
based on the content and the layout viewed. For example,
subjects will scan a webpage differently when
imagery is present as opposed to reading text-only
pages. This study proposes the question: Does the
element of time have a crucial effect on scanning
patterns and the degree of comprehension? With the
aid of eye-tracking technology, this paper will explore
subjects’ fixation durations and saccade patterns in a
timed environment. The results may potentially influence
methods for administering timed evaluations in
the educational system.
