眼动模式是阅读关键词或关键词部分的顺序。这些模式是程序员阅读源代码的重要组成部分。确定程序员如何完成总结任务的一个策略是通过眼动追踪研究。这些研究调查了人们在观看文本或图像时将注意力集中在哪里。在这项研究中，我们扩展了眼动追踪分析来确定程序员的眼动模式。我们首先对早期研究中10名专业程序员使用的眼动模式进行定性探索。然后，我们用我们学到的定性知识对这些模式进行定量分析。我们发现所有10个程序员都遵循几乎相同的眼球运动模式。这些模式类似于阅读自然语言时的眼球运动模式。
Eye movement patterns are the order in which keywords or sections of keywords are read. These patterns are an important component of how programmers read source code. One strategy for determining how programmers perform summarization tasks is through eye tracking studies. These studies examine where people focus their attention while viewing text or images. In this study, we expand on eye tracking analysis to determine the eye movement patterns of programmers. We begin the study with a qualitative exploration of the eye movement patterns used by 10 professional programmers from an earlier study. We then use what we learned qualitatively to perform a quantitative analysis of those patterns. We found that all ten of the programmers followed nearly identical eye movement patterns. These patterns were analogous to eye movement patterns of reading natural language.
