ABSTRACT
Some of the evidence comes from experiments that did not even involve pictures of natural scenes, but that used artifical stimuli, such as simple forms and dot patterns, in the context of visual search problems. One general result is that the geometric features of objects in a visual stimulus determine where a person fIxates. The more nearly alike a particular stimulus object is to one that a person is looking for, the more likely it is that the person will foveally fIxate that object.
