Abstract

Researchers read scientific literature to keep current in the field and find state-of-the-art solutions to various scientific problems. Prior work suggests that reading patterns may vary with the researcher's domain expertise and on the content of the digital document. In this work, we present a pilot study of eye-tracking measures during a reading task with the options for zooming and panning of the reading material. The main goal is to analyze unconstrained reading patterns of digital documents using eye movement fixations and dwell time on various sections of a digital document. Our results indicate that participants mostly focused on methodology and results sections, which is consistent with the prior work with constrained reading patterns.
利用眼动追踪分析数字文档的无约束阅读模式
研究人员阅读科学文献,以了解该领域的最新情况,并为各种科学问题找到最先进的解决方案。先前的研究表明,阅读模式可能会随着研究人员的领域专业知识和数字文档的内容而变化。在这项工作中,我们提出了一项在阅读任务中使用缩放和平移阅读材料选项的眼动追踪措施的试点研究。主要目标是利用眼动固定和停留时间分析数字文档的无约束阅读模式。我们的研究结果表明,参与者主要关注的是方法和结果部分,这与之前的研究结果一致。
