One limitation of modern methods for analyzing repeated measures is that results from fitting mixed models cannot easily be presented graphically in terms of subject level raw data. Thus, we used simplified, and statistically less powerful traditional methods to generate simple scatter plots. For each participant, we computed two difference scores, representing the degree to which participants modulate their gaze pattern in response to the experimental condition. The first difference score focused on participants’ % fixation duration to the Face AOI and was computed as the difference between (1) participants average % fixation duration to the Face AOI during the 16 congruent trials, and (2) participants average % fixation duration to the Face AOI during the 16 congruent trials (congruent minus incongruent). The second difference score was computed identically and focused on the participants’ % fixation duration to the Target AOI. Scatter plots representing the association between these two difference scores and participants’ BAPQ aloof subscale scores are presented in Fig. 3.
