What Eye Movement Research Tells Us about Perceptual Behavior of Children and Adults: Implications for the Visual Arts.

Marschalek, Douglas G.

Studies in Art Education, v27 n3 p131-39 Spr 1986

The record of eye fixations and movements is an objective measure of an individual's involvement with an art object. This review of eye movement research reveals distinct patterns of viewing behavior which are determined by the age of the viewer, the type of visual materials, the nature of the problem confronting the viewer, and the structure of the object.
