Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The study found that participants from an Eastern culture (specifically, Japanese participants) spent more time looking at people in the periphery compared to participants from a Western culture (specifically, American participants). Therefore, option B is the correct choice. Option A is incorrect because Western participants spent less time looking at people in the periphery. Option C is not mentioned in the study, and option D is too broad and not specific to the findings of Masuda and his colleagues.
