Popis: Few studies have published methodologies that can be used to analyze simultaneous gaze behaviors and recurrent fixations while multiple observers are viewing dynamic scenes and moving their heads. In this study, we aimed to develop a methodological framework to assess simultaneous gaze behaviors and recurrent fixations in predetermined areas of interest, while accounting for head movement and nonstandard observer positioning. Gaze coordinates were recorded during six trials in which a single participant focused on the center of a video image and moved his head in six degrees of freedom. Markers were positioned at the image corners. Eyetracking equipment recorded the video image and gaze behaviors (crosshair), which were then uploaded to SIMI Motion Analysis software. The corner markers were digitized in order to determine image position as the head moved, and were used to calculate new gaze coordinates relative to this head movement. Calculations accounted for the perspective error due to nonstandard participant positioning. Across all trials, the error between the measured and calculated coordinates was acceptable (
