Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) as a field of study has been known over thirty years. Despite this, and considering the development of different computer, mobile, and virtual systems there is a great need for steady development in the HCI theory and practice. The aim of this Special Issue is to publish papers covering a potentially broad spectrum of the design, implementation, application, analysis, and evaluation of interactive systems. The scope of the Special Issue covers the following specific subject areas (but is not limited to them):

  • Interaction styles development
  • Theory of human-computer communication
  • User interface adaptation
  • Web and mobile systems
  • Natural and virtual user interfaces
  • Usability and User Experience methods development
  • Eye tracing application
  • Future development of HCI

The aim of this paper is to examine the influence of the content elements of online banner ads on customers’ visual attention, and to evaluate the impacts of gender, discount rate and brand familiarity on this issue. An eye-tracking study with 34 participants (18 male and 16 female) was conducted, in which the participants were presented with eight types of online banner ads comprising three content elements—namely brand, discount rate and image—while their eye movements were recorded. The results showed that the image was the most attractive area among the three main content elements. Furthermore, the middle areas of the banners were noticed first, and areas located on the left side were mostly noticed earlier than those on the right side. The results also indicated that the discount areas of banners with higher discount rates were more attractive and eye-catching compared to those of banners with lower discount rates. In addition to these, the participants who were familiar with the brand mostly concentrated on the discount area, while those who were unfamiliar with the brand mostly paid attention to the image area. The findings from this study will assist marketers in creating more effective and efficient online banner ads that appeal to customers, ultimately fostering positive attitudes towards the advertisement.
