Eye tracking brings deep consumer-behavior insights into the mix because it can measure how advertising, messaging, and packaging capture shopper attention — helping academics assess the effectiveness of store layouts, product placement, and ad content.
Data collected from eye tracking suggests how to create more successful marketing messages that capture attention and resonate with today’s consumers.
In the continuously evolving media landscape, it is also a popular research method to understand new media habits and their influence on consumer decisions.
The eye tracking solution with a dedicated application, like our software Tobii Pro Lab, can further process the eye tracking data to draw valuable conclusions on a wide variety of cognitive and behavioral processes, including:
Study how consumers evaluate and select products.
Examine visual attention during price comparisons and purchase deliberations.
Learn about visual attention shifts across devices to understand usage preferences.
Identify cognitive biases by measuring fixation duration and gaze patterns on products.
Study browsing and decision-making behavior in-store.
Analyze where consumers look within various media formats.
There are many ways to leverage eye tracking data in marketing research:
Advertising research
Packaging research
Web design
Store layout
Wayfinding
Device use
