Age group Congruent Incongruent None Congruent Incongruent None
4-year-olds 70.08 (2.08) 49.55 (2.71) 83.55 (1.97) 46.64 (1.93) 67.91 (3.06) 80.81 (2.34)
8-year-olds 74.77 (1.85) 49.41 (2.40) 82.10 (2.29) 47.75 (2.84) 71.68 (2.40) 80.36 (3.54)
12-year-olds 79.45 (1.88) 60.33 (2.53) 87.84 (1.74) 60.48 (3.16) 80.35 (1.76) 85.65 (2.01)
College students 88.10 (1.11) 79.37 (1.64) 94.01 (1.37) 76.75 (2.44) 87.95 (1.80) 95.31 (0.89)

Note. Percent gaze duration reflects the percent of time participants looked toward the face. Exclusive focus on the face would result in a score of 100, and looking entirely at the context would result in a score of 0.
