People tend to see element that are close to each other as one group than elements spaced farther apart.

23
Q

What does the rule of similarity mean?

  • sex

  • eyes
27
Q

What location draw our attention?

28
Q

What does Horizontal centrality / central-stage effect mean?

A

This describes our preference for the center. Products in the center are the most popular, therefore increases visual attention in the center.
- higher fixation rate and fixation duration.

29
Q

What does Inference mean? And how can it be measured?

A

the perception that the best products are in the center. Can be measured by quality perception, popularity and attractiveness.

30
Q

What is the central fixation bias?

A

31

Q

What are the 5 senses?

A
  1. Episode memory = knowledge about ourselves based on past experience.
  2. Semantic memory = general info.
40
Q
