چکیده

The aim of this paper is to present an experimental investigation conducted to assess the impact of personality factors on the formation of Spatial Presence. Four different media -linear text, hypertext, film and virtual environmentand eight different experimental manipulations were applied. Spatial Presence was measured using the MEC-SPQ questionnaire. Personality was measured using the NEO-FFI personality questionnaire. Other personality traits such absorption, domain-specific interest and spatial visual imagery were also measured. Our findings suggest that absorption, domain-specific interest and agreeableness are good predictors of Spatial Presence. Experimental manipulations, however, had a quite small effect on Spatial Presence. Keywords---Presence, Spatial Presence, personality factors, traits, Big Five
