                            <p>This study aims to comprehensively examine the effects of packaging designs on consumer perception, attention, and decision-making processes using eye-tracking. Eye-tracking technology objectively measures participants&#039; visual attention to specific elements of the packaging design, providing detailed data on consumers&#039; cognitive processes during the first impression phase through indicators such as fixation points, gaze duration, gaze order, attention intensity maps, and focus areas. As part of the study, participants were systematically exposed to various packaging designs from different categories, and the attention-grabbing, readability, information hierarchy, and overall perceptibility of the design elements were analyzed in detail. The findings reveal that fundamental design elements such as color contrast, typography, graphical layout, packaging format, and content placement are decisive in directing consumer attention. In particular, the psychological effects of colors, the increased readability of minimal design approaches, and the accurate construction of visual hierarchy were observed to positively impact consumer product recognition, product orientation, and product evaluation. Additionally, it has been determined that highly eye-catching packaging strengthens brand recall, increases purchase intention, and fosters positive perceptions of the product. In this regard, the study offers important conclusions indicating that packaging design is not merely an aesthetic element but also a strategic communication tool that guides consumer behavior. The integration of eye-tracking data into design processes contributes to academic literature and provides a guiding framework for manufacturers and design professionals to develop more effective, user-focused, and competitive packaging solutions.</p></trans-abstract>

Göz izleme teknolojisi, katılımcıların ambalaj tasarımı üzerindeki belirli unsurlara yönelttikleri görsel dikkati objektif biçimde ölçebilmekte; sabitleme noktaları, bakış süresi, bakış sırası, dikkat yoğunluk haritaları ve odaklanma alanları gibi göstergeler aracılığıyla tüketicilerin ilk izlenim aşamasındaki bilişsel süreçlerine ilişkin ayrıntılı veriler sunmaktadır. Araştırma kapsamında farklı kategorilerden çeşitli ambalaj tasarımları katılımcılara sistematik olarak gösterilmiş ve bu süreçte tasarım bileşenlerinin dikkat çekiciliği, okunabilirlik düzeyi, bilgi hiyerarşisi ve genel algılanabilirliği detaylı biçimde analiz edilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgular, renk kontrastı, tipografi seçimi, grafiksel düzen, ambalaj biçimi ve içerik yerleşimi gibi temel tasarım unsurlarının tüketici dikkatini yönlendirmede belirleyici olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Özellikle renklerin psikolojik etkileri, minimal tasarım yaklaşımlarının okunabilirliği artırması ve görsel hiyerarşinin doğru kurgulanmasının tüketicinin ürünü fark etme, ürüne yönelme ve ürünü değerlendirme süreçlerini olumlu yönde etkilediği gözlemlenmiştir. Ayrıca dikkat çekiciliği yüksek ambalajların marka hatırlanabilirliğini güçlendirdiği, satın alma niyetini artırdığı ve ürüne yönelik olumlu algının oluşumunu desteklediği saptanmıştır. Bu doğrultuda çalışma, ambalaj tasarımının yalnızca estetik bir unsur olmadığı, aynı zamanda tüketici davranışlarını yönlendiren stratejik bir iletişim aracı niteliği taşıdığı yönünde önemli sonuçlar sunmaktadır. Göz izleme verilerinin tasarım süreçlerine entegrasyonu hem akademik literatüre katkı sağlamakta hem de üretici firmalar ile tasarım profesyonellerine daha etkili, kullanıcı odaklı ve rekabet gücü yüksek ambalaj çözümleri geliştirme konusunda yol gösterici bir çerçeve sunmaktadır.</p></abstract>
