4 A), both main effects failed to reach statistical significance (emotional expression: F (2, 86) = 1.72, ε = 0.99, p = 0.185, η p 2 = 0.04; initial fixation location: F (5, 215) = 2.10, ε = 0.29, p = 0.144, η p 2 = 0.05) but we observed a significant interaction of both factors, F (10, 430) = 6.18, ε = 0.72, p < 0.001, η p 2 = 0.13.
