Emotional and visual responses to trypophobic images with object, animal, or human body backgrounds: an eye-tracking study
These results supported the background effect of trypophobia, namely, trypophobic images with animal or human body backgrounds induce more severe disgust and cause more arousal than those with object backgrounds. Our results support the cognitive, but not spectral profile, framework of trypophobia.
