瞬目に基づく注目対象の推測に関する基礎的検討

The relation between the timing of blinks and gazing-objects while performing visual task is analyzed. In the experiments, capital and small letters of alphabet are presented to a computer display in horizontally distant position. Under the counting conditions, the subjects are instructed to count the total number of the target characters, while they are instructed to merely watch the screen under the free-observing conditions. As the results next findings are obtained. In the formar conditions, the blinks triggered by gazing-letters onset are frequently occurred and the blinks with slightly longer latency tend to occur in association with the target rather than with non-target characters onset. In the latter conditions, the blink onset in association with either of capital or small letters are likely to be observed continuously although gazing-points frequently go back and forth between letters.
