Aggregated Data Export

Aggregated Data Export writes per-AOI summary metrics as a long-format CSV, ready for R, Python (pandas), SPSS, or Jamovi.

CSV structure

One row per Participant × Stimulus × AOI × Metric:

Participant_IDNumeric participant identifier
Participant_NameDisplayed participant name
StimulusDisplayed stimulus name
AOI_GroupDisplayed AOI name, or No_AOI / Any_Fixation
MetricMetric name (e.g. Dwell_Time)

No_AOI aggregates fixations outside every AOI; Any_Fixation aggregates all fixations on the stimulus.

Participant_ID,Participant_Name,Stimulus,AOI_Group,Metric,Value

Metrics

Select any of these. Metrics that require a visit return -1 for AOIs the participant never fixated.

  • Absolute Dwell Time (ms)
  • Relative Dwell Time (% of viewing time)
  • Time to First Fixation (ms; -1 if never fixated)
  • First Fixation Duration (ms; -1 if never fixated)
  • Mean Fixation Duration (ms; -1 if never fixated)
  • Mean Visit Duration (ms; -1 if never fixated)
  • Fixation Count
  • Visit Count (consecutive fixations in the same AOI count as one visit)
