Process tracing is a qualitative research method used to develop and test theories. [1] [2] [3] Process-tracing can be defined as the following: it is the systematic examination of diagnostic evidence selected and analyzed in light of research questions and hypotheses posed by the investigator (Collier, 2011).
MOT study results indicate that the number of targets that people can track is very limited. This reflects a bottleneck in the brain's processing architecture. Whereas at the early, sensory stages of visual processing, dozens of objects may be fully processed, later processes such as those associated with cognition have much more limited ...
Eye tracking. This methodology is used to study a variety of cognitive processes, most notably visual perception and language processing. The fixation point of the eyes is linked to an individual's focus of attention. Thus, by monitoring eye movements, we can study what information is being processed at a given time.

The new study in the journal Current Biology titled “Neural evidence for referential understanding of object words in dogs ” the researchers wanted to investigate dogs’ understanding of ...
In a study of high school tracking policies in North Carolina, Kelly and Price (2011) [24] report that the typical school had five or more levels of mathematics, with some schools having three or more levels of Geometry alone. Larger schools and schools with a greater diversity of student achievement level have more extensive tracking systems ...
