Abstract
Eye movements were recorded while participants viewed
line-drawing pictures of natural scenes in preparation for a memory
test (Experiment 1) or to find a target object (Experiment 2).
Initial saccades in a scene were not controlled by semantic
information in the visual periphery, although fixation densities and
fixation durations were affected by semantic consistency. The
results are compared with earlier eye-tracking studies, and a
qualitative model of eye movement control in scene perception is
discussed in which initial saccades in a scene are controlled by
visual but not semantic analysis.
