Researchers using eye-tracking equipment monitored the eye movements of U.S. and Chinese students while they looked at similar photos that showed a single focal object against a realistic, complex background. The results, presented in the Culture and Human Behavior box "Ways of Seeing," showed that:
A)compared to the U.S. students, the Chinese students used a more holistic perceptual style and tended to see and remember object and background as a single perceptual image.
B)the Chinese students looked sooner and longer at the focal object in the foreground than the U.S. students.
C)compared to the Chinese students, the U.S. students used a more holistic perceptual style and tended to see and remember object and background as a single perceptual image.
D)the Chinese students showed greater brain activation while making relative judgments and the U.S. students showed greater brain activity while making absolute judgments.
