In terms of the effect of gaze behavior on target detection, participants were better at detecting visual targets in the direct looking compared to the eavesdropping conditions ( Figure 2A ; d-prime AV d vs AV e , p = 3.05 × 10 –4 , V d vs V e : p = 6.10 × 10 –5 ; Wilcoxon signed-rank tests) and performance in crosshair fixation generally fell in between ( Figure 2A ; d-prime AV c vs AV d , p = 0.02, AV c vs AV e , p = 0.0068, V c vs V d , p = 0.01, although close to significance, V c vs V e , p = 0.06; unpaired Wilcoxon rank-sum tests, since different participants took part in experiment 1 except for seven participants).
