Abstract in brief

  • The study examines how eye movements during a spatial working memory task, based on the Morris maze, can reveal differences in strategic planning between healthy individuals and Parkinson's disease patients.
  • Eye movements, specifically fixations directed ahead or behind the upcoming or previous search boxes, are linked to better task performance, whereas refixations on already found tokens correlate with errors and disease severity.
  • Overall, eye tracking provides valuable insights into cognitive planning and memory processes, potentially serving as a sensitive tool for assessing executive function and neurological conditions like Parkinson's disease.]
