通过有效地关注其他人以及他们产生的微妙的社交线索，可以促进社交理解。为了更充分地理解社会注意力的本质以及是什么驱使人们关注世界的社会方面，我们必须研究影响社会注意力的因素。当试图创建无序的社会注意力模型时，这一点尤其重要，例如自闭症社会关注的模型。在这里，我们分析了参与者在与实验者一对一社交互动期间的观看行为。互动可以现场进行，也可以通过视频进行（社交存在操纵）。参与者被询问，然后被要求回答问题。实验者的目光接触可以是直接的，也可以是回避的。此外，还调查了参与者自我报告的自闭症特征的影响。我们发现，无论互动是现场进行还是通过视频进行，参与者都会频繁地看实验者的脸，而且他们在被问问题时比回答问题时更频繁地看实验者的脸。还观察到现场和视频互动之间的社会关注度存在重大差异。实验者目光接触的改变仅影响参与者在现场互动中的眼球运动；自闭症特征的增加与仅在视频交互时较少注视实验者有关。我们的结论是，分析响应严格控制的视频刺激和自然现实世界刺激的眼球运动模式可以进一步加深该领域对影响社会注意力的因素的理解。
Social understanding is facilitated by effectively attending to other people and the subtle social cues they generate. In order to more fully appreciate the nature of social attention and what drives people to attend to social aspects of the world, one must investigate the factors that influence social attention. This is especially important when attempting to create models of disordered social attention, e.g. a model of social attention in autism. Here we analysed participants' viewing behaviour during one-to-one social interactions with an experimenter. Interactions were conducted either live or via video (social presence manipulation). The participant was asked and then required to answer questions. Experimenter eye-contact was either direct or averted. Additionally, the influence of participant self-reported autistic traits was also investigated. We found that regardless of whether the interaction was conducted live or via a video, participants frequently looked at the experimenter's face, and they did this more often when being asked a question than when answering. Critical differences in social attention between the live and video interactions were also observed. Modifications of experimenter eye contact influenced participants' eye movements in the live interaction only; and increased autistic traits were associated with less looking at the experimenter for video interactions only. We conclude that analysing patterns of eye-movements in response to strictly controlled video stimuli and natural real-world stimuli furthers the field's understanding of the factors that influence social attention.
