Abstract

In comparison to voluntary eye movements (saccades), micro-saccades are very small, jerk-like and involuntary. While microsaccades and cognition has become one of the most rapidly growing areas of study in visual neuroscience [Trends Neurosci. 32: 463–475], microsaccades are still neglected in NeuroIS. Using experimental data by Walcher et al. [Conscious Cogn. 53:165–175; Data Brief 15:18–24] we demonstrate the potential of microsaccades to evaluate the level of concentration a user perceives during task fulfillment. As a result we found a substantial negative relationship between the magnitudes of the microsaccades and the level of concentration (p
