Topic: revisitations

Humans use eye movements to sample the visual world, and these impact which information is retained in memory. However, memory is not only affected by the amount of time spent viewing a visual scene but also by specific gaze patterns during visual exploration. Revisitations occur when the eye gaze returns to a previously fixated location, resembling retrieval processes and offering another chance to encode. What remains unclear is whether revisitations actually enhance long-term memory formation and how they are associated with hippocampal activity dynamics. In this study, 50 human participant
