Human eye movement tendencies vary systematically when processing shades, sizes, shapes, and colors
Empirical eye-tracking and neuroimaging studies confirm that human eye movement patterns and visual attention allocation vary systematically in response to differences in object shape, size, packaging, and visual features.
The claim states that human eye movement tendencies vary systematically when processing shades, sizes, shapes, and colors. Papers [1] and [2] provide direct empirical evidence using eye-tracking and neuroimaging that visual attention allocation and saccade targets are systematically influenced by features such as shape, size, and visual strategies. Thus, the claim is supported by the literature.

Demonstrates that peripheral saccade target processing is sensitive to shape features, showing systematic foveal feedback during eye movements.
