A short introductory statement
I am a fourth-year doctoral student at University of Wisconsin- Milwaukee. I am a post-quall, and now preparing for dissertation proposal. My advisor is Iris Xie, and she and I worked together for a long time. I affirmed that I can meet the participation requirements. A research Statement
INTRODUCTION
The eye-tracking technique was introduced to academic research a few decades ago and has re-emerged as the cost of these tools has reduced while the quality of eye-tracking devices has increased. Eye-tracking is a technique that involves recording participants’ eye movements to determine the specific locations that a participant’s eye studies at a given time (Poole & Ball 2006). The application of eye-tracking …show more content…
The central research question has two components. First, how users’ eye-tracking data are associated with their determination of relevance of portions of the content displayed. Next, what are the relationships between eye-tracking data and cognitive loads during the search tasks? One of our research goals is to investigate users’ search behavior when they are interacting with the health-related online database. We also want to examine how a user interacts with help mechanisms such as the help browser or the visualized MeSH (Medical Subject Heading) …show more content…
