This paper presents the methodology and results of a pilot
study comparing the eye movements of architecture students when
looking at different modalities of digital spatial representation. The
two participant groups consisted of third and fourth year undergraduate
architecture students from the University of North Carolina at
Charlotte, USA and from Harbin Institute of Technology, Harbin,
China. The two modalities studied were a computer-generated line
drawn perspective and a digitized photograph of the same architectural
space. The results of this study show that student designers’ physiological
response varies with different ...
