Checking the Statistical Assumptions Underlying the Application of the Standard Deviation and RMS Error to Eye-Movement Time Series: A Comparison between Human and Artificial Eyes

Lee Friedman, Timothy Hanson, Hal S. Stern +1

Spatial precision is often measured using the standard deviation (SD) of the eye position signal or the RMS of the sample-to-sample differences (StoS) signal during fixation. As bo…
