Assessments of gaze behaviour and object memory are typically done in the context of experimental paradigms briefly presenting transient static images of synthetic or real scenes. Less is known about observers' gaze behaviour and memory for objects in a real world environment. While wearing a mobile eyetracker, 20 subjects performed a task in which they walked around a building eight times and were either told to walk normally, or to also expect to be asked about what they saw following their walk. During the course of their walk, nine objects along their path were exchanged for similar token objects of the same category (e.g., whisk broom for push broom). Observers told to prepare for a memory test were much more likely to notice object changes than observers simply told to walk normally (32% vs. 5%). Detected object changes were also fixated for longer duration prior to the change, suggesting a role of task demand in gaze control and the selective storage of visual information.
