Eye-tracking data from Hegarty et al. (2010). Participants viewed an arrow located in Utah (obscured by eye-tracking data in the figure) and made judgments about whether the arrow correctly identified the wind direction. The black isobars were the task-relevant information. Notice that after instructions, viewers with the pressure-salient visualizations focused on the isobars surrounding Utah, rather than on the legend or in other regions. The panels correspond to the conditions in the original study
