Social interaction relies on information obtained from the eyes to a large extent. However, most of the current eye movement research apply experiments where participants are recorded individually in separate rooms. Those experiments help explaining and model human visual system, individual saccade behavior and fixations under certain conditions. But they lack of explaining the social role of the eye movements. In this study, we design and develop a tool for analyzing the role of eye movements in social communication. In order to measure the role of eye movements in social cognition, we have developed a system called “Group Eye Tracking (GET)”. The software infrastructure of the GET is related to the network infrastructure of client machines, data communication among group members and data collection during the experiment. In this thesis, we describe the details about creating stimuli and designing group conditions running on the software infrastructure and report the analysis of group eye movement data.

Investigating cognitive and emotional factors that trigger pupil delation in human computer interaction Uyanık Civek, Ceren; Gökçay, Didem; Baltacı, Serdar; Department of Biomedical Engineering (2018) Human-computer interaction can be enhanced if emotional arousal of the user can be predicted. Measurement of pupil dilation is an effective indicator to achieve a successive classification for categorizing the psychological state of a user. In this study, rather than trying to identify several psychological states, we focused on the identification of stress. There exist several factors that shift the state of a computer user from relaxation to stress. In this study, we mainly focused on the cognitive factor...
User interaction in hands-free gaming: a comparative study of gaze-voice and touchscreen interface control Uludagli, Muhtar Cagkan; Acartürk, Cengiz (2018-01-01) The goal of the present study is to contribute to the research on the use of eye tracking in hands-free gaming. We report the results of an experimental study by using a platform game designed by the authors. The game allowed gaze-voice command control, as well touchscreen control of the interface by the player. We employed a set of performance measures and we measured player engagement as an indicator of user experience. The findings revealed that the players did not improve in game performance when they u...
Mining eyetracking data to characterise users and theirpatterns of use Öder, Melih; Betin Can, Aysu; Department of Information Systems (2019) Eye tracking studies typically collect an enormous amount of data that encodes a lot of information about the users’ behavior and characteristics on the web. However, there are not many studies that mine such data to learn and discover user characteristics and proﬁles. The main goal of this study is to mine eye tracking data by machine learning methods to create data models which characterise users and predict their characteristics, in particular, familiarity and gender. Detecting users’ characteristics can...
Examining Cognitive Creativity as an Individual Difference in Second Language Acquisition Pıpes, Ashleıgh Carter(2017-12-31) This study examines cognitive creativity as an individual difference and its role in processes and outcomes of second language acquisition. The study explores relationships between participants’ creativity, as measured by the Torrance Test of Creative Thinking, and their course grades, narrative structure use, and communication strategy use.
Deictic gaze in virtual environments Yılmaz, Efecan; Acartürk, Cengiz; Department of Cognitive Sciences (2018) The research in human-robot interaction (HRI) involve topics, such as interlocutor collaboration in joint action, deixis in HRI, or the properties of shared environments. Moreover, referring expressions are particularly studied in joint action from both expression generation and resolution perspectives. Selective visual attention in gaze interaction and saliency patterns are also active topics in HRI. The present thesis investigated in a virtual reality (VR) environment an HRI and joint action situation wit...
