About
Martin K. Teunisse is a leading researcher in the cognitive science of social interaction, specializing in the intricate dynamics of gaze behavior during face-to-face communication. His work bridges experimental psychology and cross-cultural studies to understand how vision guides collaborative action. Teunisse’s major contributions include advancing an interactive theory of gaze, challenging traditional models that focus on individual agents by demonstrating how eye movements are coupled with both actions and gestures in dyadic settings. His 2023 paper on task-related gaze in collaboration (16 citations) lays the groundwork for this shift, while his 2024 work on gaze-action and gaze-gesture coupling (9 citations) further refines models of multimodal communication. Notably, his cross-cultural investigation between Japan and the Netherlands (2025, 13 citations) questions long-held assumptions about East-West gaze avoidance, using precise eye-tracking to reveal more nuanced cultural patterns. With a growing citation impact, Teunisse’s research is essential for students and scholars interested in nonverbal communication, joint action, and the cognitive underpinnings of human interaction.
