| Description | Recently, there has been a huge interest in using eye tracking in humanities and it became crucial to address the issue of eye tracking methodology in research with participants with special needs or from clinical populations. We would like to specify some challenges researchers are facing while conducting research with the child population with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), specifically with connection to interpretation and replicability of research. In the article, we provide suggestions for adjusting the data collection situation not only to simplify the data collecting situation for researchers as well as for participants, but also to gain the best possible data quality while working with children with special needs. We base our recommendations on the present state of knowledge in the field as well as our own experience with data collection with autistic population. |
