An eye-catching new study shows just how different the experience of walking home at night is for women versus men.

The study, led by Brigham Young University public health professor Robbie Chaney, provides clear visual evidence of the constant environmental scanning women conduct as they walk in the dark, a safety consideration the study shows is unique to their experience.

    What if women just look around at more stuff than their goal in general and not just walking home?

      Fortunately, studies have been done on this! They give images to participants and track their eye movements. It is an exercise for you to find these studies and see if they validate or challenge your viewpoint.

        I’ve actually heard about it before. That’s why I brought it up.
