Gaze-Triggered Orienting to Emotional Gazing Faces and Marijuana and Non-Marijuana Targets

This study examined if attitudes toward marijuana influence orienting in a gaze-cuing task using expressive gazing faces and marijuana/non-marijuana targets. Reflexive orienting to gaze and evidence of cue-target associations that were sensitive to marijuana attitudes were observed, suggesting that experimental context is a determinant of gaze/expression interactions and gaze-triggered orienting.
