Abstract

We investigate the utility of an eye tracker for providing information on users’ affect and reasoning. To do so, we conducted a user study, results from which show that users’ pupillary responses differ significantly between positive and negative affectivestates. As far as reasoning is concerned, while our analysis shows that larger pupil size is associated with more constructivereasoning events, it also suggests that to disambiguate between different kinds of reasoning, additional information may beneeded. Our results show that pupillary response is a promising non-invasive avenue for increasing user model bandwidth.
