What can eye tracking reveal about cognitive processes?
In this learn article, we will present how eye tracking technology has been used to study cognitive processes and the insights that these studies have generated.
Use cases
Psychology and neuroscience
Eye movements are powerful indicators of the intricacies of the human mind. Eye tracking offers insights into cognitive functions and emotional states while providing cues to the neural mechanisms underlying these processes.
Cognitive psychology
Cognitive psychology
Eye movements are closely linked to cognitive processes such as memory, decision-making, and associative learning. Cognitive scientists combine eye tracking with behavioral paradigms to isolate the cognitive functions of interest, allowing data collection with high ecological validity and temporal precision of a response.

Our study participants are people with Autism Spectrum disorders or Schizophrenia where having an eye tracking system that is unobtrusive and allows for head movement is imperative. The dual eye tracking cameras, sampling rate and discreet design with Tobii Pro Fusion will open up the possibilities for more extensive research on our demographic.

Social psychology
Social psychology
Eye tracking is a valuable tool in social psychology studies, providing insights into how people visually process and respond to social stimuli. Recording eye movements in various social scenarios helps researchers uncover the mechanisms related to prosociality, empathy, or social decision-making.
Use cases
Discover how Tobii eye trackers are used in social psychology.
Eye-to-eye contact is infrequent but shapes our social behavior
During social interactions, eye gaze carries a wealth of information about our attention, intention, or psychological state. Researchers recorded the looking behavior in live interaction.
Eye tracking sheds light on social anxiety
Studies show that people with social anxiety pay more attention to negative facial expressions. An eye tracking study confirmed this theory and revealed that training people to focus on positive stimuli can lead to a reduction in this bias.
Eye tracking proves concept of emotion bias within varying cultural groups
Researchers from Freie Universität Berlin used eye tracking in a study that revealed the incidence of negativity biases among different cultures by testing reactions to facial expressions.
