dc.description.abstract | The present study used an inhibition of return (IOR) spatial cueing paradigm to examine how gaze
direction and head orientation modulate attention capture for human faces. Target response time
(RT) was measured after the presentation of a peripheral cue, which was either a face (with frontfacing
or averted gaze, in either frontal head view or averted head view) or a house (control).
Participants fixated on a centred cross at all times and responded via button press to a peripheral
target after a variable stimulus onset asynchrony (SOA) from the stimulus cue. At the shortest
SOA (150 ms), RTs were shorter for faces than houses, independent of an IOR response,
suggesting a cue-based RT advantage elicited by faces. At the longest SOA (2400 ms), a larger
IOR magnitude was found for faces compared to houses. Both the cue-based RT advantage and
later IOR responses were modulated by gaze-head congruency; these effects were strongest for
frontal gaze faces in frontal head view, and for averted gaze faces in averted head view.
Importantly, participants were not given any specific information regarding the stimuli, nor were
they told the true purpose of the study. These findings indicate that the congruent combination of
head and gaze direction influence the exogenous attention capture of faces during inhibition of
return. | en |
