Emerging research has suggested a correspondence between spontaneous eye-blink rate and task performance. Recently, increased spontaneous blink rate has been reported as a measure of divided attention during a driving task (Strychacz, Chase, & Jung, 2007) and task engagement (Heishman & Duric, 2007). However, it is unclear whether any di erences in spontaneous blink rate relate to performance di erences in environments with varying spatial complexity.
