The aim of this study is to explore the structure of Farsi referring expressions (RE) used during a collaborative Tangram puzzle solving activity, and investigate the role of different visual cue conditions on the types of RE and the degree of gaze coordination. A jigsaw task design was used which required participants to work as a team to solve Tangram puzzles in three conditions where (a) all pieces had the same color (normal condition), (b) all pieces were assigned a distinct color (color condition), and (c) all pieces had the same color but the partner’s gaze information was visualized on the screen (gaze cueing condition). In this respect, two main aspects were under scrutiny: linguistic and dual eye-tacking analysis, while both are assumed to be enriched recourses for modulating joint attention. For this purpose, a corpus of Farsi REs in a situated dialogue environment is constructed to evaluate the frequency of specific RE’s features and their length distribution. Descriptive statistics show that Mosallas (Triangle), Un (That) are the most frequently used RE words in the Farsi corpus. The RE feature distributions are compared with Turkish, Japanese and English RE corpora compiled with the same task to provide a cross-linguistic analysis. Conversational analysis of features of REs revealed the prominent role of color terms in identifying objects and the striking influence of shape and size in gaze cueing condition. Besides, cross-linguistic analysis results demonstrate that Farsi is distant to all languages in this respect. In case of dual eye-tracking analysis, results were not influenced significantly under different status and also along six trials. However, there was a significant interaction effect between conditions and trials especially for the color case.

A Usability Study of WebMaps with Eye Tracking Tool: The Effects of Iconic Representation of Information
Alacam, Özge; Dalci, Mustafa (2009-07-24)
In this study, we aim to conduct usability tests on different WebMap sites with eye movement analysis. Overall task performance, the effects of iconic representation of information, and the efficiency of pop-up usage were evaluated. The eye tracking technology is used for this Study in order to follow the position of the users' eye-gaze. The results show that there are remarkable differences in task performance between WebMaps. Addition, they also differ in the use of iconic representations according to res...
The Role of modifiers in Turkish discourse bank
Çakmak, Deniz Hande; Zeyrek Bozşahin, Deniz; Department of Cognitive Sciences (2015)
This thesis focuses on the role of modifiers used with discourse connectives and investigates modifiers in terms of affecting the modality of the discourse relations. Modifiers are originally adverbs used for different semantic purposes. The already annotated data in Turkish Discourse Bank, or TDB are used for identifying modifiers and classifying them. In the light of previous studies, the discourse connectives occuring with modifiers are analyzed and classified. The semantic distribution of modifiers is d...

An Eye-Tracking Analysis of Spatial Contiguity Effect in Educational Animations
Altan, Tuğba; Çağıltay, Kürşat (2015-08-07)
The purpose of this study is to examine spatial contiguity effect on multimedia learning with an instructional animation using eye-tracking. The research method was experimental method and the study was conducted with a user group consisting of 12 participants (6 female and 6 male). The data collection tools were a demographic survey, a prior knowledge test, a retention test and an eye-tracker. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and non-parametric statistics including Mann-Whitney...
