Attention Orienting by Gazes is Affected by the Number of Face Stimuli
An uninformative cue by a centrally-presented face gazing to one-location can trigger reflexive shifts of attention toward the location gazed at.In this gaze-cueing paradigm,the variation of face stimuli providing the gaze cue can influence the amount of cueing effect.Therefore,present study is concerned with the influence of number of face stimuli on gaze-cueing effect.The face number was varied to provide one,two,four,or three-versus-one gaze cues in two experiments.The results of experiment 1 showed that no significant difference was found among the cueing effects induced by one,two,and four faces in a same-gazedirection condition.However,in a gaze contrast condition of experiment 2,significant cueing effect was observed along the gaze direction of three same-direction-gazing faces,rather than along that of only one face.The results presented here support the hypothesis that face number affects gaze-evoked attention orienting.
