Social Presence: The Role of Interpersonal Distances in Affective Computer-Mediated Communication
نویسندگان
چکیده
Emotions and interpersonal distances are identified as key aspects in social interaction. A novel Affective ComputerMediated Communication (ACMC) framework has been developed making the interplay of both aspects explicit to facilitate social presence. In this ACMC framework, the displays can be arranged in virtual space manually or automatically. We expect that, according to empirical findings, the social relation as well as momentarily affective appraisals will influence this arrangement. The proposed concept extends from desktop devices to fully immersive Virtual Reality interfaces.

Interpersonal distance is central to communication and complex social behaviors but the neural correlates of interpersonal distance preferences are not defined. Previous studies suggest that damage to the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) is associated with impaired interpersonal behavior. To examine whether the OFC is critical for maintaining appropriate interpersonal distance, we tested two groups o...

Touch is our primary non-verbal communication channel for conveying intimate emotions and as such essential for our physical and emotional wellbeing. In our digital age, human social interaction is often mediated. However, even though there is increasing evidence that mediated touch affords affective communication, current communication systems (such as videoconferencing) still do not support c...

This study aimed to clarify the relationship between media, learners’ perception of social presence, and output in communicative learning using synchronous computer-mediated communication (SCMC). In this study, we developed four types of SCMC: videoconferencing (image and voice), audioconferencing (voice but no image), text chat with image (image but no voice), and plain text chat (no image and...
