注视方向是人们相互传递信息的重要交流渠道。通过发出社会注意力所在地的信号，凝视线索传达了有关环境中物体（包括其他人）的相对重要性的信息。在大多数情况下，这些信息是通过注视方向的模式来传达的，注视方向的变化表示注意对象的变化。注意到凝视线索在社会认知中的相关性，我们推测凝视转移可能会调节人们对他人的评价。我们调查了这种可能性，要求参与者判断的可爱性（实验1）和物理吸引力（实验2）的目标显示的目光转移指示的注意力参与或脱离与参与者。正如预期的那样，人的评价是由目光转移的方向，但只有当考虑的判断是相关的参与者。我们考虑如何以及何时凝视转移可能会调节人的感知及其相关的行为产品。
Gaze direction is a vital communicative channel through which people transmit information to each other. By signaling the locus of social attention, gaze cues convey information about the relative importance of objects, including other people, in the environment. For the most part, this information is communicated via patterns of gaze direction, with gaze shifts signaling changes in the objects of attention. Noting the relevance of gaze cues in social cognition, we speculated that gaze shifts may modulate people's evaluations of others. We investigated this possibility by asking participants to judge the likability (Experiment 1) and physical attractiveness (Experiment 2) of targets displaying gaze shifts indicative of attentional engagement or disengagement with the participants. As expected, person evaluation was moderated by the direction of gaze shifts, but only when the judgment under consideration was relevant to participants. We consider how and when gaze shifts may modulate person perception and its associated behavioral products.
