“…Although some have reported little to no change in fixations as viewing time increases (De Graef, Christiaens, & d'Ydewalle, 1990), several studies have noted a tendency for fixations to increase during initial viewing periods and to stabilize during later viewing (e.g., Antes, 1974;Friedman & Liebelt, 1981;Pannasch, Helmert, Roth, Herbold, & Walter, 2008;Unema, Pannasch, Joos, & Velichkovsky, 2005).
