I think their question was why would all the women click the same ten random places rather than spread the heat map out more broadly along the dark area?

Exactly, thanks.

Ahh, that's more clear then, sorry!

Heat map images were analyzed using canonical correlation (Rc) to determine the relationship between the two groups; dispersion testing to decipher spatial uniformity within the images; the Structural Similarity Index (SSIM) to characterize the nature of image patterns differences; and, the Breslow–Day Test to specify pattern locations within images.

Basically:

  • n women clicked somewhere on the bush
  • The bush is officially located at coordinates x/y
  • Place heat map point (circle) n times at x/y (the bush)
