| Abstract | Research has suggested that observers, when looking at scenes with multiple illumination levels, tend to avoid shadowed regions in the images. This result was obtained in experiments using psychophysics and when using eyetracking methodology. However, in such demonstrations participants were asked to estimate color properties. In the present study, we introduced cognitive tasks applied to images partially covered with a shadow. Participants, while looking at the photographed faces, judged age, beauty and profession of the depicted people. The eye movement measures (first fixation location, number of fixations, and dwell time) showed that even under such high-level cognitive tasks, the visual system has a preference for non-shadow regions. |
