Similarity in gaze distribution as a function of the viewing condition + inference group (the No-context + No-inference [blue], No-context + Inference [red] and Context + Inference [green] conditions) and Shot (1–6).

<p>Similarity is expressed as z-scored probabilities relative to the Context + Inference baseline gaze probability distribution. Larger values indicate greater attentional synchrony, while lower values indicate less attentional synchrony.</p

Mean foveation probability as a function of the viewing + inference condition (the No-context + No-inference [blue], No-context + Inference [red] and Context + Inference [green], Shuffled Baseline [black] conditions) and Shot (1–6).

<p>Error bars represent the standard error.</p

Similarity in gaze distribution as a function of viewing condition + inference group (No-context + No-inference [blue], No-context + Inference [red] and Context + Inference [green], Shuffled Baseline [black] conditions) and Shot (1–6).

<p>Gaze similarity is calculated relative to the Context + Inference group. Similarity is expressed as z-scored probabilities relative to the mean Context + Inference group gaze probability distribution. Values below zero indicate less attentional synchrony than the mean for the Context + Inference group; values above zero indicate higher attentional synchrony than the mean. Error bars indicate +/- 1 standard error across individuals for each frame.</p

Each graph represents the proportion of participants who reported a critical idea over Shots 4–6 in the Context and No-context viewing conditions.

<p>Circus/Tent/Building = mention the circus tent or other building; Land on Circus/Tent = mention of landing on the circus or building.</p
