Gazing is important during communication, which is a type of body language that differs from culture to culture. The present study investigated the influence of direct and averted gaze directions on the perceived duration of gazing among same-race and other-race faces. The gaze direction effect, in which direct-gazing faces were perceived to be longer than averted-gazing faces were, was found in the same-race condition but not in the other-race condition. The results could promote our understanding of the underlying mechanism of the gaze direction effect based on the perception of interpersonal social interaction.
在交流过程中注视很重要,它是一种因文化而异的肢体语言。本研究调查了直接注视方向和回避注视方向对同种族和其他种族面孔注视时长感知的影响。在同种族条件下发现了注视方向效应,即直接注视的面孔被感知为比回避注视的面孔持续时间更长,但在其他种族条件下未发现此效应。这些结果有助于我们基于人际社会互动感知来理解注视方向效应的潜在机制。
