Abstract
Previous research shows that using eye-gaze as the target in spatial interference tasks elicits a reversed-congruency-effect (RCE). Across two experiments, we examined how gaze deviation modulates this effect. Results show a stronger RCE with partially-averted gazes than fully-averted ones, suggesting the RCE reflects implicit, automatic processes related to eye-contact detection.
