The study found that when viewing city scenes, Americans were more likely to focus on the foreground and objects, while Japanese participants were more likely to focus on the background. Therefore, if an American tourist was in Tokyo, she would be most likely to pick up on the foreground and objects in a picture, rather than the background.
