چکیده

This paper presents preliminary results about the use of virtual characters, penile plethysmography and gaze behaviour dynamics to assess deviant sexual preferences. Pedophile patients’ responses are compared to those of non-deviant subjects while they were immersed with virtual characters depicting relevant sexual features.

Scene Perception, Gaze Behavior, and Perceptual Learning in Virtual Environments

More and more immersive environments are developed to provide support for learning or training purposes. Ecological validity of such environments is usually based on learning performance comparisons between virtual environments and their genuine counterparts. Little is known about learning processes occurring in immersive environments. A new technique is proposed for testing perceptual learning...

Assessing Perceptual Learning Dynamics During Visual Search in Virtual Immersion Using Eye-Tracking Technologies

This short paper proposes a methodology to assess perceptual learning during virtual immersion. This methodology relies upon eye-tracking technologies and fractal dynamics analyses performed on gaze behavior recorded in relation to virtual objects’ features.

Presence as Determined by Fractal Perceptual-Motor Dynamics

This paper presents a tentative model of the role of perceptual-motor dynamics in the emergence of the feeling of presence. A new method allowing the measure of how gaze probes three-dimensional space in immersion is used to support this model. Fractal computations of gaze behavior are shown to be more effective than standard computations of eye movements in predicting presence.

Measuring Sexual Preferences in Virtual Reality: A Pilot Study

Virtual reality (VR), as a method to assess sexual preferences, is explored. Dynamics of the subjective point of view (POV), subjective affective state, and feeling of presence, as measured following the interaction with a virtual naked model, appear as promising ways to probe sexual preferences as expressed in immersion. Theoretical aspects of VR psychology and further steps in developing a se...

Sexual Deviancy

Sexual deviancy is a rather broad and vague term. Its usage connotes that there are recognized norms of sexual behavior which are accepted by society in general. In fact, "normal" sexual behavior has never been well categorized. Rather, aberrant behaviors, sufficiently unacceptable to most persons, have been lumped together to comprise sexual deviancy. These of course may vary over time and acr...
