Food flavor constituents modulate dietary choices through cross-modal sensory integration. This study deciphers the molecular mechanisms through which cooking-induced transformations of onion (Allium cepa L.) volatile profiles guide visual food selection, employing integrated eye-tracking and GC-IMS volatilomics. Based on relative odor activity value and principal components analysis, boiled and roasted onions have the most volatile compounds and similar flavor components. Dimethyl sulfide and ethyl-2-methyl propanoate are the unique key flavor compounds...Afficher plus

In the increasingly competitive over-the-counter (OTC) pharmaceutical market, packaging color has evolved from a visual embellishment to a crucial factor influencing consumer perception and purchasing behavior. While prior studies have addressed the attention-guiding function of packaging colors, systematic exploration of how colors affect purchase intentions through perceptual mechanisms in pharmaceutical contexts remains insufficient. To fill this gap, this study investigates the effects of four representative hues (red, yellow, green, and blue) in col...Afficher plus

Much research has been done on the comprehension and development of enterprise process models. In this paper, we follow up on work done previously by others on the effect of ambiguities on model comprehension. Ambiguities might lead to multiple alternative process interpretations by the readers of process models.In this paper, we will present research on techniques for collecting biometric data to investigate how we work with visual process models, some of which include lexical or visual ambiguities. We report an experiment with data from 26 persons as t...Afficher plus

Successful health promotion involves messages that are quickly captured and held long enough to permit eligibility, credibility, and calls to action to be coded. This research develops an exploratory eye-tracking atlas of breast cancer screening ads viewed by midlife women and a replicable pipeline that distinguishes early capture from long-term processing. Areas of Interest are divided into design-influential categories and graphed with two complementary measures: first hit and time to first fixation for entry and a tie-aware pairwise dominance model fo...Afficher plus

Visual attention refers to the cognitive process of selectively targeting certain visual stimuli in the environment, while others are ignored. In the case of food, it also has a strong influence on the taste, perception of the experience, and emotions related to food. The primary aim of this paper is to investigate how the visual presentation of food (burger) prepared under two conditions using identical raw materials, and a third condition utilizing a more nutritionally balanced composition (vegetarian), with varying visibility of vegetables (colored fo...Afficher plus

Abstract Media messages shape our knowledge about the world, but measuring individual exposure and attention remains challenging. Emerging media offer a solution to studying message reception in simulated real-world environments, which may soon become the actual media environments in which we encounter messages. Here, we utilized virtual reality (VR) and eye-tracking to investigate message processing in a realistic virtual city environment populated with billboards. We introduced an inception-style manipulation where billboards initially overlooked by pa...Afficher plus

This study investigates the effectiveness of virtual influencers in luxury brand endorsement. We show that virtual influencers are generally less effective than human influencers. However, using a tactile presentation style and increasing virtual influencers’ perceived autonomy can enhance brand outcomes. Further, we find that cultural orientation—collectivism versus individualism—moderates the effectiveness of virtual influencers. This study contributes to the literatures on luxury marketing, sensory marketing, and Artificial Intelligence-driven influen...Afficher plus

In our research, we are developing a keyword recommendation system for tourism-related search terms by extracting user preferences from gazing sentences and still images obtained based on the user's gaze information while browsing websites. However, many Web sightseeing sites contain not only text and still images, but also “explanatory videos” of sightseeing spots. Therefore, we propose the addition of a function for extracting user preferences from content containing gazing videos to existing system.

To find an item in a menu, users can follow different visual search strategies, such as scanning items one by one (serial search) or trying to remember where the item was (recall search). However, building predictive models of search behavior has turned out to be challenging, because these strategies evolve with practice. To address this challenge, we study theory-inspired models of visual search in linear menus and propose a novel arbitration mechanism to coordinate the adoption of such visual search strategies. Given a menu design and the user’s previo...Afficher plus

ABSTRACT Individuals have cognitive limits and systematically rely upon heuristics when making decisions. One such example is threshold‐based heuristics where decision makers use attribute cut‐offs to screen and eliminate alternatives from their choice set that do not satisfy their cut‐off levels for critical attributes. Failure to account for information on attribute cut‐offs can generate biased estimates in choice models. This study addresses stated attribute cut‐offs in discrete choice experiments using eye‐tracking technology. We assess the relations...Afficher plus
