This study analyzed the attention people paid to different package designs by tracking their eye movement. Taking two instant noodle packages as stimuli, we compared the scan path and fixation of eyes under the conditions with and without cues given. Subjects' perception of the elements of the package design was examined using a questionnaire. Our results are as follows. (1) With no cue given, the average fixation time was about 390 ms in a 20-second observation. Difference was found between the two package designs but not significant. Fixation was found to be more frequent (shorter fixation time) in the initial stage than in the later stage. The image (55%) was the item with most attention given, followed by the main title (18%). while the brand name and texts were paid the least attention. (2) With cue given, the average fixation time was about 344 ms. Compared with those of the 'no-cue' condition, the frequency of fixation was higher and the duration of fixation was shorter. Such difference was significant among male and non-design major subjects. (3) Responses to the questionnaire show that subjects paid more attention to texts than images, which was inconsistent with the fixation findings. Moreover, attention paid to titles focused more on the meaning and lay out rather than the font type, while attention paid to images emphasized more on the content and meaning rather than the shape and form. |
