Contested Staring: Issues and the use of mutual gaze as an on-line measure of social presence
نویسندگان
چکیده
Despite many of the current social presence measures relying heavily on subjective post-test questionnaires, some researchers have identified the value of using online, behavioural measures. Gaze, and specifically mutual gaze, is known to be related to social perceptions of an interlocutor, as well as facilitating task performance during an interaction [1, 2, 17]. Second Life allows for the investigation of taskbased interaction in a highly controllable social environment, whilst simultaneously allowing measurement of eye movements (using a headmounted eye-tracker). A paradigm for measuring eye movements of a user during interaction with an avatar or agent is presented. The potential for using this paradigm to investigate the use of mutual gaze as an online measure of social presence is discussed. Keywords---eye movements, mutual gaze, social presence, Second Life.
