emotional than neutral object (F(1,71) = 72.60, p < .001) and lower total gaze<br />

durations on backgrounds with a negative than positive object (F(1,71) = 115.08,<br />

p < .001).<br />

Figure 5.14. Experiments 7 – 10: Average total gaze duration on different<br />

components of scene<br />

The average total gaze duration on different scene components was<br />

further analysed by examining the proportion of gaze duration on the object as<br />

a proportion of total gaze duration on the entire scene (see Figure 5.15). A 3<br />

(emotion) x 4 (experiment) ANOVA with the repeated measures factor of<br />

emotion and the between-participants factor of experiment revealed a main<br />

effect of emotion (F(2,136) = 6.14, MSe = 0.03, p < .01, partial eta 2 = .09) and a<br />

main effect of experiment (F(3,68) = 106.65, MSe = 0.39, p < .001, partial eta 2<br />

= .83). The interaction between emotion and experiment was not significant<br />

[F(6,136) = 0.94, MSe < 0.01, p = .47, partial eta 2 = .04]. Planned contrasts<br />

revealed no significant difference between this proportion for scenes with an<br />
